What the college says

The Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma in Engineering is for learners who want to pursue a career in engineering, and who want to be able to collaborate across and apply knowledge, skills and understanding in other branches of engineering. They can either progress directly to an apprenticeship or employment as an engineering technician or can choose to progress to higher education to study for an engineering degree. The qualification is equivalent in size to three A Levels at 1080 GLH and is intended to be a Tech Level qualification. It has also been designed to meet the Tech Bacc measure when studied alongside Level 3 mathematics and the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ)
