What the college says

The Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Certificate in Uniformed Protective Services is intended to support progression to further study. Its primary purpose is to support post-16 learners in accessing higher education in public services and related areas. It is ideal for learners who would like an introduction to the uniformed protective services sector, with a view to ultimately securing employment within the sector. The qualification is equivalent in size to 0.5 of an A Level and has been designed to be taken alongside other Level 3 qualifications as part of a two-year full-time study programme. No prior study of the sector is needed, but learners should normally have a range of achievement at Level 2, in GCSEs or equivalent qualifications.
