Pearson BTECs provide progression into the workplace either directly or via study at university and are also designed to meet employer’s needs. Pearson BTEC Higher National qualifications are therefore widely recognized by industry and higher education as the principal technical professional qualification at Levels 4 and 5.  \nThe Pearson BTEC Higher National Certiﬁcate (HNC) is at level 4 (the same as the ﬁrst year of a UK honours degree).  \nThe Pearson BTEC Higher National Diploma (HND) is at level 4 and level 5 (the same as the ﬁrst two years of a UK honours degree).  \nA word from the Subject expert  \nIt’s with great pleasure that I introduce the new BTEC Higher Nationals in Animal Management. Teaching for over 25 years gave me the opportunity to see firsthand the life changing opportunities education can provide, and we have worked very hard to ensure this new qualification offers the content and learning opportunities for our students to further their education and career goals.  \nThe programme is more aligned to UKHE and new updated content will make it both a stimulating and exciting experience for students and teachers. Centre’s can deliver with  \nconfidence a programme that will prepare and equip students for a sustainable career within the Animal Industry.  \nI am here to provide guidance, advice and support on every aspect of the programme and its implementation and will welcome your views and feedback. I will be posting news and updates on the HN Global forum so please get registered and join the online discussions.  \nI look forward to working with you.   \nChris  \nProfessional courses developed collaboratively with subject experts  \nWith input from industry, employers, professional bodies, tutors, students, and higher education institutions, your new Pearson BTEC Higher Nationals have been designed to better meet the needs of a changing market. The result is a qualification suite designed and developed to meet professional standards, recognised by employers and universities, which develop not only academic skills and abilities, but work-readiness skills.  \nThe objectives of the redevelopment of the BTEC Higher Nationals have been to ensure:  \n• employer engagement;  \n• work relatedness;  \n• opportunities for progression to further higher education;  \n• alignment with UK higher education expectations; and  \n• qualifications which are up to date with current professional practice and include professional accreditation and opportunities to gain vendor certification where possible.  \nWhat’s new?  \nFor your new Pearson BTEC Higher National qualifications in Animal Management, we are building on what you’ve told us you value most:  \n• Essential subject knowledge needed by students to progress successfully into further study, orto the world of work or continued employment;  \n• A simplified structure: students can choose to undertake a substantial core of learning and, if required, they can also start their identified specialist pathways in the Higher National  \nCertificate. Students can continue to build on this in the Higher National Diploma, with further specialist and optional units linked to their specialist area of study;  \n• Four specialist pathways Plus one general and four specialist pathways at Level 4 and 5 so there is something to suit each student’s preference for study","cbCaieclcjJTTIHk","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieclcjJTTIHk","pdf",934226,"English","# Introducing your new Pearson BTEC Higher Nationals in Animal Management\n## A word from the Subject expert\n## Professional courses developed collaboratively with subject experts\n## What’s new?\n## Flexible choice of subject areas and progression opportunities\n## Qualification structure: HNC and HND","[{\"question\":\"What are the teaching and certification dates for this Pearson BTEC Animal Management guide?\",\"answer\":\"Teaching begins from September 2018, and first certification is from 2019 (Issue 1).\"},{\"question\":\"What are the key differences between the Pearson BTEC HNC and HND levels?\",\"answer\":\"The HNC is Level 4, while the HND covers Level 4 and Level 5 (with credit totals of 120 for HNC and 240 for HND).\"},{\"question\":\"How do assessments and learning outcomes support progression?\",\"answer\":\"Assessments consider cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills, and the assessment strategy supports progression to Level 6 studies while allowing centres to offer assessment relevant to local employers.
