BTECs have become synonymous with success offering learners different routes to their chosen career each designed to help them achieve their goals in a way that suits their style of learning

New BTEC Level 2 for post-16 and adults

We will be launching our new BTEC Level 2 post-16 qualifications in line with the roll out of the Departmens for Education's reform. Our new BTECs will retain their practical nature and enable your learners to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours required for their chosen career or progression option.

There will be two qualification suites to choose from:

BTEC First
These qualifications are designed to support progression to further full-time study at Level 3, either A Level, Level 3 Alternative Academic Qualifications (AAQ), Level 3 Technical Occupational Entry Qualifications (TOE) or T Levels.
BTEC Technical
These qualifications support entry into employment or an apprenticeship. They will also be perfect for progression to further level 3 technical study.
