Entry Level and Level 1 Introductory (2016/2019)
In response to feedback, we've created a highly motivating and flexible way for you to deliver skills-based learning to all your below-Level-2 learners. Our new Entry Level and Level 1 Introductory qualifications can be tailored around the specific needs of your learners, so they can acquire the personal, social, employability and vocational skills they will need to progress to independent living, employment, an apprenticeship or further study.
Entry Level and Level 1 (2010 QCF)
Our 2010 QCF qualifications are due to expire soon, on 31 August 2021, after which no more registrations will be accepted. Alternative replacement qualifications can be found here. If you are currently teaching these qualifications, this means you can continue to do so until they expire in 2020/21.
