They provide progression to the workplace either directly or via study at a higher level. Proof comes from YouGov research, which shows that 62 per cent of large companies have recruited employees with BTEC qualifications. What’s more, 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.  \nWhy are BTECs so successful?  \nBTECs embody a fundamentally learner-centred approach to the curriculum, with a flexible, unit-based structure and knowledge applied in project-based assessments. They focus on the holistic development of the practical, interpersonal and thinking skills required to be able to succeed in employment and higher education .  \nWhen creating the BTEC Nationals in this suite, we worked with many employers, higher education providers, colleges and schools to ensure that their needs are met. Employers are looking for recruits with a thorough grounding in the latest industry requirements and work-ready skills such as teamwork. Higher education needs students who have experience of research, extended writing and meeting deadlines.  \nWe have addressed these requirements with:  \n• a range of BTEC sizes, each with a clear purpose, so there is something to suit each learner’s choice of study programme and progression plans  \n• refreshed content that is closely aligned with employers’ and higher education needs for askilled future workforce  \n• assessments and projects chosen to help learners progress to the next stage .
