T Levels will combine classroom theory and practical learning, and are made up of the following:  \n• Technical Qualification: the substantial component of your course.  \n• Industry placement: of at least 315 hours (approximately 45 days) with an employer to make sure you have authentic experience of the workplace.  \nThe Technical Qualification is the main classroom-based element of the T Level. During your two-year course, you will learn the core knowledge that underpins the sector, and you will also develop occupationally specific skills that will allow you to enter skilled employment within a specific occupation.  \nThis T Level Technical Qualification has been developed in collaboration with employers , so the content meets the needs of industry and prepares you for work. It will provide the knowledge and experience needed to open the door to skilled employment, an apprenticeship or higher-level study.  \nWhat is the digital industry?  \nThe digital industry is a major source of employment in the UK, with 1.46 million people working in digital companies and around 45,000 digital jobs advertised at any one time. Digital skills span all industries; almost all jobs in the UK today require employees to have a proficient level of digital literacy. The UK has positioned itself to be the ‘digital capital of Europe’ as it continues to invest billions every year in digital skills and commerce.  \nWho is this Technical Qualification for?  \nThis Technical Qualification can only be taken as part of a T Level course and is not available as a stand-alone qualification. It is for post-16 students and is ideal if you are intending to progress directly to employment within the digital production, design and development sector in roles such as a Programmer, Web Designer, IT Business Analyst,  \nSystems Designer, or Software Development Technician, to a digital apprenticeship or to further studies in digital.  \nWhat does the Technical Qualification cover?  \nThe content is split into a core component that has been created for this T Level Technical Qualification in Digital Production, Design and Development, and a single occupational specialism, which is:  \n• Digital Production, Design and Development  \nThe core component provides a broad understanding of the digital industry and covers the following topics:  \n• Business Context  \n• Culture  \n• Data  \n• Digital Analysis  \n• Digital Environments  \n• Diversity and Inclusion  \n• Learning  \n• Legislation  \n• Security  \n• Testing  \n• Tools  \nThe core component will be assessed by two exams and an employer set project.  \nYour occupational specialism will allow you to develop the relevant skills in preparation foryour career in the digital sector. The occupational specialism is assessed by a project that is created in conjunction with employers. The content covers the following topics:  \nDigital Production, Design and Development  \n• Analysing a problem to define requirements and acceptance criteria aligned to user needs  \n• Designing, implementing, and testing software  \n• Changing, maintaining and supporting software  \n• Creating solutions in a social and collaborative environment  \n• Discovering, evaluating, and applying reliable sources of knowledge  \n• Applying ethical principles and managing risks in line with legal and regulatory requirements when developing software  \nAs part of this Technical Qualification, you will also enhance your broader skills in literacy and numeracy, which will be valuable in supporting progression in other areas. In addition, you will develop transferable technical and practical skills in communication (working with colleagues, customers, and clients), research and project work, providing you with an opportunity to demonstrate your reflective practice by suggesting alternative ","cbCaignVdin35G2l","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaignVdin35G2l","pdf",100444,"English","# Qualification Description\n## T Levels overview\n## What is the digital industry?\n## Who is this Technical Qualification for?\n## What does the Technical Qualification cover?\n## What could this Technical Qualification lead to?\n## Who supports this Technical Qualification?\n## Further information","[{\"question\":\"What are T Levels and how is this Technical Qualification structured?\",\"answer\":\"T Levels follow GCSEs and combine classroom theory with practical learning.
