The family of BTEC Level 3 in IT qualifications includes Certificate, Subsidiary Diploma, 90-credit Diploma, Diploma and Extended Diploma which offer opportunities for nested provision and flexibility of delivery. BTEC Level 3 in IT qualifications are designed to relate to the National Occupational Standards for the sector, where these are appropriate, and are supported by the relevant Standards Setting Body (SSB) or Sector Skills Council (SSC). Some BTEC Level 3 in IT qualifications form the technical certificate component of apprenticeships and all attract UCAS points that equate to similar-sized general qualifications. On successful completion of a BTEC Level 3 in IT qualification, learners can progress into or within employment and/or continue their study in the same vocational area. This specification provides content and structures that help learners to acquire the skills and knowledge needed to work as professionals in the IT sector. Key aspects are: l reduced set of mandatory units so that the centre and learners can choose appropriate sets and combinations to meet their interests and aspirations l fully embedded vendor awards with no requirement for double assessment. l units based on the National Occupational Standards and contextualised to the IT environment l simple and consistent nesting of qualifications to allow learners to choose specialist pathways later in their programmes of study l use of some level 2 vendor units from the BTEC Level 2 in IT qualification as optional units l embedded units from the Business and Creative Media BTEC Level 3 qualifications l the ability to bring defined units in from other sectors using the ‘Meeting Local Needs’ process.
