Why choose BTEC Nationals?
Alongside A Levels, BTEC Nationals are the most widely recognised qualification for admission to Higher Education. BTECs are career-based qualifications designed to give students the practical skills and specialist knowledge they need to progress along their chosen learning and career path.
Young people taking their first steps towards a new life after school need the right blend of technical and academic skills to become the highly skilled, work-ready individuals employers and universities seek.
BTEC Level 3 Nationals are vocational qualifications designed to help students succeed. They have been developed in collaboration with over 5,000 universities, employers and professional bodies with employability at the heart, so students can develop the skills and confidence they will need to step into their future.
BTEC Level 3 Nationals qualifications take a unit-by-unit approach and provide students with practical, work-related courses. They offer:
• Combination of assessment styles. Students can demonstrate their knowledge, skills and understanding through work-related contexts.
• Large foundation of mandatory units. Universities and employers have evidence of a consistent level of core knowledge and skills.
• Comprehensive support. Students have access to an extremely comprehensive package of support designed to help them achieve their best.
