We provide content, assessment and digital services to learners, educational institutions, employers, governments and other partners globally. We are committed to helping equip learners with the skills they need to enhance their employability prospects and to succeed in the changing world of work.

We will inform centres of any changes to this issue.  \nThe latest issue can be found on our website.  \nReferences to third-party material made in this specification are made in good faith.

BTEC International Level 3 qualifications allow learners to progress to the workplace – either directly or via study at a higher level. Over 100,000 BTEC learners apply to university every year. Their Level 3 BTECs, either on their own or in combination with A Levels, are accepted by UK and international universities, and higher-education institutes for entry to relevant degree programmes.  \nCareer-ready education  \nBTECs enable a learner-centred approach to education, with a flexible, unit-based structure and knowledge applied to project-based assessments. BTECs focus on the holistic development of the practical, interpersonal and thinking skills required to be successful in employment and higher education.  \nWhen creating the BTEC International Level 3 qualifications in this suite, we worked with many employers, higher-education providers, colleges and schools to ensure that we met their needs. Employers are looking for recruits who have a thorough grounding in the latest industry requirements and work-ready skills, for example teamwork. Learners who progress to higher education need experience of research, extended writing and meeting deadlines. BTEC qualifications provide the breadth and depth of learning to give learners this experience.  \nBTEC qualifications address these needs by offering:  \n• a range of BTEC qualification sizes, each with a clear purpose, so that thereis something to suit each learner’s choice of study programme and progression plans  \n• internationally relevant content, which is closely aligned with employer and higher-education needs  \n• assessments and projects chosen to help learners progress; this means that some assessments and projects are set by you to meet local needs, while others are set by Pearson, ensuring a core of skills and understanding common to all learners.  \nWe provide a full range of support, both resources and people, to ensure that learners and teachers have the best possible experience during their course. See Section 10 Resources and support, for details of the support we offer.  \nSummary of Pearson BTEC International Level 3 Qualifications in Hospitality specification Issue 3 changes  \n\n| Summary of changes made between the previous issue and this current issue | Page number |\n| --- | --- |\n| Sustainable elements added to align with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) | Pages 30, 31, 60, 61, 88, 89, 93, 117, 128, 132, 141, 145, 149, 175, 176, 177, 268 |\n","cbCaip1Dg7VzSV0l","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaip1Dg7VzSV0l","pdf",8996465,366,"English","# Introduction to the BTEC International Level 3 qualifications for the hospitality sector\n# Qualifications, sizes and purposes at a glance\n# Structures of the qualifications at a glance\n# Qualification and unit content\n## Assessment\n## Grading for units and qualifications\n# 1 Qualification purpose and progression\n# 2 Structure\n# 3 Units\n## Understanding your units\n## Index of units\n# 4 Planning your programme\n# 5 Assessment structure\n## Introduction\n## Internal assessment\n## Pearson Set Assignment units\n# 6 Internal assessment\n## Principles of internal assessment\n## Making valid assessment decisions\n## Planning and record keeping\n## Setting effective assignments\n## Late completion, resubmission and retakes\n# 7 Administrative arrangements","[{\"question\":\"When is first teaching for Pearson BTEC International Level 3 Hospitality specification Issue 3?\",\"answer\":\"First teaching starts from April 2020 for Issue 3.\"},{\"question\":\"What is one highlighted change included in this Issue 3 specification?\",\"answer\":\"Sustainable elements were added to align with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with updates across multiple pages and a new Appendix explaining embedding the strategy into BTEC qualification design and delivery.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the specification describe BTEC assessment and project work?\",\"answer\":\"It outlines an assessment approach combining project-based assessments with both centre-set elements for local needs and Pearson-set elements to ensure shared skills and understanding.\"}]","Pearson BTEC International Level 3 Hospitality Specification - Issue 3 - Changes summary | PDF",1792465802,922]
