They provide progression to the workplace either directly or via study at higher levels. Proof comes from YouGov research, which shows that 62% of large companies have recruited employees with BTEC qualifications.  \nWhy are BTECs so successful?  \nBTECs embody a fundamentally learner-centred approach to the curriculum, with a flexible, unit-based structure . In this new BTEC Introductory Suite, the focus is on the development of both transferable and sector skills. The development of these skills is key in helping progression to further study – whether that be to other BTECs, to apprenticeships or to training. As we expect many learners to be studying functional skills or GCSEs alongside their BTEC we also offer support skills in English and maths.  \nWhen creating the BTEC Introductory Suite, we worked with colleges to ensure that learners’ needs were met. The colleges told us that it is essential that Level 1 learners develop key progression skills in areas such as problem solving, communication and research.  \nWe have addressed this through:  \n• offering a BTEC Introductory Award, a BTEC Introductory Certificate and a BTEC Introductory Diploma, each has a clear and distinct purpose, so there is something to suit every learner’s choice of study programme and progression plan  \n• new skills-focused content closely aligned with what centres need in supporting their learners to become part of a skilled workforce  \n• graded assessments in every unit to help learners progress to the next stage of their persona","cbCaimaNjnChGV6O","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimaNjnChGV6O","pdf",7656669,734,"English","# Overview of the BTEC Introductory qualifications\n## Qualifications, sizes and purposes at a glance\n## Qualification and unit content\n## Assessment\n## Grading for units and qualifications\n# 1 Qualification objectives and purpose\n# 2 Structure\n# 3 Units\n## Understanding your units\n## Index of units\n# 4 Planning your programme\n# 5 Assessment\n## Introduction\n## Principles of internal assessment\n## Setting effective assignments\n## Making valid assessment decisions\n## Planning and record keeping\n# 6 Administrative arrangements\n## Introduction\n## Learner registration and entry\n## Access to assessment\n## Administrative arrangements for internal assessment\n## Dealing with malpractice in assessment\n## Additional documents to support centre administr","[{\"question\":\"When does first teaching for this BTEC Level 1 Introductory vocational studies specification begin?\",\"answer\":\"First teaching starts from September 2019.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the focus of the BTEC Introductory Suite in this specification?\",\"answer\":\"It focuses on developing transferable and sector skills within a learner-centred, flexible, unit-based structure.\"},{\"question\":\"How are learners supported as they study alongside functional skills or GCSEs?\",\"answer\":\"The suite provides support skills in English and maths alongside the BTEC.\"}]","Pearson BTEC Level 1 Introductory Award - Issue 6 | PDF",1792467179,1850]
