T Levels are a 2-year qualification that you can do after GCSEs as an alternative to A levels, other post-16 courses or an apprenticeship.
They have been developed in collaboration with leading employers and businesses to give you the knowledge and skills you need, and to prepare you for work, further training or study.
T Levels offer a mixture of classroom learning and ‘on-the-job’ experience during an industry placement of at least 315 hours (approximately 45 days). Your industry placement gives you the chance to learn what a real career is like while you continue your studies.
