The Future of Skills: T-Levels Explained

T-Levels are a relatively new qualification in England, having been introduced in September 2020. Designed to bridge the gap between classroom-based learning and practical work.

Each T-Level course offers students on-the-job experience, placing them in the workplace one day a week while the rest of the time is dedicated to industry-specific learning.

This ensures that students are gaining the necessary theoretical knowledge alongside practical skills required for the role, filling skill gaps and kickstarting professional careers.
