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.  \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 personal journey, whether to further education or to the world of work.  \nA word to learners  \nToday’s BTEC Introductory qualifications will demand a lot of practical work from you .
