We run two courses in BTEC Sport, one our National Diploma is the equivalent to 2 A levels and the other National Extended certificate is the equivalent to 1 A level. For over 30 years BTEC Nationals have been widely recognised by industry and higher education as a highly successful vocational Level 3 qualification. They provide progression to the workplace either directly or via study at a higher level. A recent YouGov survey, showed that 62% of large companies have recruited employees with BTEC qualifications. Well over 100,000 BTEC students apply to UK universities every year and their BTEC Nationals are accepted by over 150 UK universities and higher education institutes for relevant degree programmes either on their own or in combination with A Levels. BTEC Nationals require applied learning that brings together knowledge and understanding with practical and technical skills. This is achieved through learners performing vocational tasks that encourage the development of appropriate vocational behaviours and transferable skills such as communication, teamwork, planning and completing tasks to high standards, which are valued in both the workplace and in higher education. • Unit 1 Anatomy and Physiology • Unit 2 Fitness Training and Programming for Health, Sport and Wellbeing • Unit 3 Professional Development in the Sports Industry • Unit 18 Work Experience Active Leisure • Unit 4 Sports Leadership • Unit 5 Application of Fitness Testing • Unit 10 Sport Event Organisation • Unit 22 Investigating Business in Sport and the Active Leisure Industry • Unit 23 Skill Acquisition in Sport
