A replacement qualification and a new one
This month's update includes information on the replacement of the Pearson BTEC Level 1 Award in Principles of Carrying and Delivering Goods by Road (QCF) from 1 August 2015 and the new Pearson BTEC Level 2 Extended Certificate in Principles of Working in Warehousing and Storage (QCF).
Replacement of the Pearson BTEC Level 1 Award in Principles of Carrying and Delivering Goods by Road (QCF) from 1 August 2015
We have recently reviewed the Pearson BTEC Level 1 Award in Principles for Carrying and Delivering Goods by Road (QCF) (600/4676/4).
This qualification will be withdrawn from 31 July 2015. From 1 August 2015 centres need to register learners on the new version of this qualification:
- Pearson BTEC Level 1 Award in Principles for Carrying and Delivering Goods By Road (QCF) (601/6695/2)
This old version of this qualification was mapped to the Initial Driver CPC requirements and as a result we have amended the qualification.
The unit ‘Principles of Customer Service When Carrying and Delivering Goods by Road’ (Y/503/7929) has been replaced by a new unit, ‘Principles of Professional Image and Customer Service When Carrying and Delivering Goods by Road’ (M/507/3223). The new unit is 2 credits in size and as a result the new version of this qualification is 6 credits in size.
New Qualification: Pearson BTEC Level 2 Extended Certificate in Principles of Working in Warehousing and Storage (QCF) (601/6918/7)
The Pearson BTEC Level 2 Extended Certificate in Principles of Working in Warehousing and Storage (QCF) (601/6918/7) has been accredited for first teaching from 1 August 2015. The qualification is designed for learners aged 16-19 and provides them with a broad range of underpinning occupational knowledge.
This includes work experience where they can learn through experience in their role in a warehousing and storage environment and validate the theory and knowledge delivered in the classroom setting.
