Engineering Operations Level 2

This course is for those who want to work within engineering and would like experience of different engineering disciplines.

These qualifications provide learners with the core knowledge, understanding and behaviours required for a range of Manufacturing and Engineering occupational roles. It takes a hands-on approach to training by providing the learner with;

• Core knowledge and understanding of a range of occupational roles from across the engineering and manufacturing sector
• Core behaviours that will ensure success in their role and help them to achieve their potential
• A wide range of core knowledge and behaviours that can be transferred across the manufacturing engineering industry sectors.

In addition to your main study programme you will also engage in activities to develop your English, maths and employability skills.

You will study both the practical use and underpinning knowledge of the subject, which may involve local employers providing real examples as part of the training.

Set sessions consist of a blended learning in theory and practical subjects. Learners will be assessed by external exams at set time periods and a synoptic assessment lasting four weeks.

• 3 GCSEs (9-3), including English and Maths, or Level 1 Functional Skills equivalent, or satisfactory results (Merit/Distinction) in a relevant Level 1 qualification
• An interview

Applicants with previous experience of engineering technologies will be considered on an individual basis.

Successful learners can progress onto the relevant Level 2 Technical certificate or onto an Advanced Apprenticeship, which are equivalent to 2 A Levels and available in a number of industry pathways including Manufacturing, Mechanical/Electrical and Electronic Engineering.

Career routes within the Engineering industry include roles within the Manufacturing, Mechanical Engineering, Electronics, Robotics and Maintenance sectors in roles such as Mechanical Engineers
