They provide progression to the workplace either directly or via study at a higher level. Proof comes from YouGov research, which shows that 62% 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 . This means some are set by you to meet local needs, while others are set and marked by Pearson so that there is a core of skills and understanding that is common to all learners. For example, a written test can be used to check that learners are confident in using technical knowledge to carry out a certain job.  \nWe are providing a wealth of support, both resources and people, to ensure that learners and their teachers have the best possible experience during their course . See Section 10 for details of the support we offer.  \nA word to learners  \nToday’s BTEC Nationals are demanding, as you would expect of the most respected applied learning qualification in the UK. You will have to choose and complete a range of units, be organised, take some assessme","cbCaiguNFnolobIL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiguNFnolobIL","pdf",2301672,114,"English","# About Pearson\n# Welcome\n# Why are BTECs so successful?\n# A word to learners\n# Collaborative development\n# Summary of changes made between the previous issue and this current issue","[{\"question\":\"When were the teaching and first certification for this Issue 9 planned to begin?\",\"answer\":\"The specification states “First teaching from January 2017” and also “First teaching September 2017 Issue 9,” with “First certification from 2018.”\"},{\"question\":\"How do BTEC Nationals approach curriculum and assessment in this specification?\",\"answer\":\"They use a learner-centred, flexible, unit-based structure with knowledge applied in project-based assessments, combining local needs with a core set of skills and understanding marked by Pearson in some cases.\"},{\"question\":\"What change is highlighted in the Issue 9 summary of differences from the previous issue?\",\"answer\":\"The Merit standard paragraph was revised to incorporate the requirement for learners to assess the impact that EU law has on law making in the UK.\"}]","Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Certificate in Applied Law Specification - Issue 9 | PDF",1792466786,287]
