The technical qualification is made up of two components, both of which need to be successfully achieved.
The Core Component:
The core content is designed to offer sufficient breadth of knowledge and skills for the learner to apply in a variety of contexts related to the industry and those occupational specialisms linked to this T Level. The core content is the building blocks of knowledge and skills that will give a learner a broad understanding of the industry and job roles. At the same time, it will develop the core skills they will need to apply when working within the industry.

The knowledge tests and employer-set project are externally assessed.
Occupational Specialisms:
Occupational specialisms develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours necessary to achieve threshold competence in an occupation. Threshold competence is defined as when a learner's attainment against the knowledge, skills and behaviours is of a standard for them to enter the occupation and industry. They must also demonstrate the ability to achieve occupational competence over time with the correct support and training.

Occupational specialisms are externally moderated.

For more details please refer to the Technical Qualification Specification under the Documents tab on this page.

Centres and providers work with local employers who will contribute to the knowledge and delivery of training. Employers will provide demonstrations and talks on the industry and where possible work placements will also be provided by the employers. Further information regarding placements can be found in the DfE's Industry Placements Delivery Guidance document.

We are also producing two core textbooks through Hodder Education for both Building Service Engineering and Construction. These are currently scheduled for publication in October and November 2021.

A Day in the Life Learning Resource

Organisations involved: Activate Learning and South Devon College

Brief: Working with employers from a particular sector produce an employer endorsed 'day in the life' account to showcase to students real working environments and activities. Produce a high-quality, accessible, and detailed account of working within a particular sector, providing access to a range of useful information and visual experiences of different working environments. Develop lesson plans and associated learning materials to demonstrate how this resource could be used effectively in T Level delivery.

Communities of Practice - Developing pathways from T Levels to local HE

Organisations involved: East Sussex College Group and University of Brighton

Brief: This project was created to support staff to better understand how T level and Degree programmes can align to provide clear progression pathways for students and offer an enhanced student experience.

Resources:

Employability Skills in a Changing World

Organisations involved: South Devon College and Bridgewater and Taunton College

Brief: In order to develop a deeper understanding of how the current labour market has been affected by COVID-19, this project explored the top 10 employability skills which are required in the post-Covid-19 world and developed innovative delivery methods to support learners with these skills.

Schemes for Skills - Co-designed schemes of learning for the Construction Industry

Organisations involved: Lakes College

Brief: This project was aimed at improving teaching practice for the delivery of T Levels through the creation and development of high-quality schemes of learning to support a holistic approach to delivery informed and co-created through employer input. This will lead to improved teaching, learning and assessment (TLA) practice for the design, surveying and planning T Level. The focus surrounded the core content with the interspersion of occupational specialism aspects. The resources created could also benefit the onsite construction route due to its relevance, transferability and sharing of best TLA practice across pathways.
Resources
Placement Videos

Organisations involved: Gloucestershire College, Truro and Penrith College, Weymouth College and Halesowen College.

Brief: This project produced a short online course providing practitioners with a simple introduction to using immersive technologies within an education setting. As well as videos, which can be used in the curriculum delivery of construction T Levels, either with VR headsets or in 2D.
