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 recognised 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 our subject expert  \nThe creative industries are one of the rapid areas of growth within the UK economy and beyond. New technologies, new formats and new opportunities continue to offer areas for employment and creative expression.  \nInto this exciting area of growth we present the new Pearson BTEC Higher Nationals in Creative Media Production. Completely rewritten, to reflect the new creative media industries, the qualifications will provide centres and students the opportunity to engage with an exciting new curriculum that capitalises on the availability of new technologies and practices. With an emphasis on both subject specific and transferrable skills, these new qualifications will provide students with progression opportunities in employment or into university ‘top-up’ degrees.  \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. Be sure to visit HN Global, as a student or tutor, where you will find more resources and support for your programe.  \nI look forward to working with you!  Geoffrey Makstutis  \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 National Governing Body certification where possible.  \nWhat’s new?  \n• Essential subject knowledge needed by Creative Media Production students to progress successfully into further study or to the world of work or continued employment;  \n• A simplified and flexible structure allows centres to build programmes that embed key subject and pathway specific skills and knowledge in the Level 4 Higher National Certificates and then expand this with greater depth and detail in the Level 5 Higher National Diploma. At both Level 4 and Level a range of Optional Units will allow centres to customise their offer to meet employer or student needs;  \n• Seven specialist pathways pathways provide the specificity of subje","cbCaibJgSSL8Qb9p","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibJgSSL8Qb9p","pdf",6479770,14,"English","# Introducing your new Pearson BTEC Higher Nationals in Creative Media Production\n## HNC and HND levels and credit structures\n## What’s new in the redevelopment\n## Seven specialist pathways and unit purpose\n## Assessments and quality assurance","[{\"question\":\"What are the Pearson BTEC Higher National Certificate (HNC) and Diploma (HND) levels for Creative Media Production?\",\"answer\":\"The HNC is at level 4, while the HND covers level 4 and level 5 (across the first two years of a UK honours degree, as described in the guide).\"},{\"question\":\"How long are the HNC and HND usually studied?\",\"answer\":\"The guide states the HNC is usually full-time over one year or part-time over two years.
