Progression, Levels and Qualifications
We understand that many of our learners may not have come from a technical background or be familiar with the qualification and training levels available in building crafts and construction. However, all our departments offer courses that require no prior formal training in that subject area, as well as higher level course for students to further their qualifications. Please contact our admissions team if you would like any guidance.
The chart below summarises the possible progression routes, which may be followed before or during employment.
Please note some Level 2 courses incorporate Level 1 (i.e. no prior training or experience may be needed) so you would not require a Level 1 to enrol.
