IBM has taken significant strides in bolstering early careers through its robust apprenticeship program, aimed at addressing the skills gap, promoting diversity, and fostering inclusion within the tech sector. With a focus on growing its own young talent, IBM’s apprenticeship program offers a comprehensive pathway for school leavers to progress from Level 2 to Level 7 qualifications, thereby paving the way for careers in digital, sales, and consulting professions. This approach not only equips the future workforce with essential digital innovation skills from the onset but also places apprentices in client-facing roles, supporting large projects right from the start​​.

The program is part of IBM’s broader diversity and inclusion efforts, targeting a wide array of backgrounds to enrich the tech industry with diverse voices. With an impressive retention rate of 92%, the initiative underscores the value of apprenticeships in cultivating future leaders and contributing significantly to the development of valuable IBM employees. Over time, IBM has refined its apprenticeship offerings, focusing on a core curriculum and streamlining learning providers to enhance efficiency and expand the roles available to apprentices​​.

IBM’s Foundation, an entry-level organization within the company, plays a pivotal role in managing and developing young and mid-career professionals, supporting them through award-winning programs and subject matter expertise. This ensures that apprentices are not only part of IBM’s success but are also geared for future leadership positions. IBM’s commitment to diversity is evident in its Business Resource Groups and various schemes like IGNITE and P-Tech, which support the progression of young people from underrepresented backgrounds, further enriching the tech ecosystem with a variety of perspectives and skills​​.

IBM’s apprenticeship programs range from level 3 to level 6, offering young individuals the opportunity to gain valuable workplace skills and embark on successful careers. Moreover, the degree apprenticeships provided enable apprentices to work while achieving a Bachelor’s honours degree, integrating real-world roles at IBM with their academic pursuits. IBM’s inclusive approach encourages applications from individuals across all subject backgrounds, highlighting the company’s emphasis on passion and drive to learn new skills over top grades​​.
