Flying Start Degree Programme

Flying Start programmes also combine university study with paid placements at PwC, giving you practical experience alongside your degree. These programmes do not follow the apprenticeship framework. We offer Flying Start Accounting degrees in partnership with several universities across the UK.

Entry-Level Programmes

Entry-level programmes are full-time roles at PwC and do not involve studying for a university degree. Instead, you'll work as a PwC employee from day one while completing a professional qualification or apprenticeship alongside your role. PwC funds all training and qualification costs, and you'll receive a full-time salary throughout the programme.

Programmes like New World. New Skills are designed to widen access to professional careers by providing insight and experience to students from under‑represented backgrounds.
