In response to customer feedback, we have made some changes to this qualification. From September 2018, the science units will no longer be mandatory and will instead be available as optional units, so you now have the flexibility to choose the units most appropriate for your learners.
This means that if you are planning to teach this qualification from September 2018, you will need to use the new Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma in Animal Management specification (Issue 1). The Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma in Animal Management with Science specification (Issue 5) will continue to be available for those already teaching this course.
