Reforming our level 3 qualifications

WJEC Eduqas Level 3 Foundation Diploma in Art and Design

T Levels with Eduqas

Eduqas, which is part of WJEC, has been selected by the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (IfATE) to develop, deliver and award a T Level qualification in partnership with EAL, the specialist awarding organisation and skills partner for the engineering and manufacturing sector and related industries.

Eduqas and EAL are pleased to be working in partnership to develop the next generation of the T Level in Building Services Engineering for Construction.

T Levels are high-quality two-year courses, for 16- to 19-year-olds, which follow GCSEs and are equivalent to 3 A Levels. They are classroom-based but crucially involve extensive ‘on-the-job’ training through an industry placement lasting around 45 days.

The T Level for Building Services Engineering was launched for first teaching from September 2020. We will be working with employers, industry representatives, providers and other stakeholders to refresh and further develop the content and assessment methods for this qualification to ensure that it remains fit for purpose for the future.

Development will take place between now and early 2025 with the new qualification available for teaching from September 2025. As well as providing a refreshed and updated specification and specimen assessment materials, we’ll also be producing a range of support to help providers to transition from the current qualification to the new.

T Level Building Services Engineering for Construction (first teaching September 2025)

This qualification will prepare learners for a career in the construction industry, with a focus on electrical installation and maintenance, plumbing or heating. This 2-year qualification includes an industry placement of at least 45 days.

In year one, learners will develop core knowledge of how the construction industry works including health and safety, the principles of design and the role of technology and sustainability.

In year two, learners will choose one of the following specialisms as their focus:

electrotechnical engineering
gas engineering
protection systems engineering
plumbing and heating engineering
refrigeration engineering and air conditioning engineering.

Upon completing the T Level in Business Services Engineering for Construction, learners will be well placed to progress to apprenticeship, employment or higher education.
