What is a Level 3 Certificate?

Each of our fully funded Higher Level Skills courses offer a Level 3 Certificate on course completion. The courses can last anywhere between 6 and 20 days and are delivered via online classrooms.

But what exactly is a Level 3 Certificate? And what can it do for your future career prospects?

In this short blog, we provide a breakdown of the qualification and answer some of the most common questions we get asked about our Higher-Level Skills courses.

What is a Level 3 Certificate?

A Level 3 Certificate is equivalent to an A Level and represents one of the eight levels of qualification offered by the government’s educatory system.

The qualification is classed as a further-education qualification, as the nature of these courses are for those who have studied and completed their GCSEs in the UK.

Level 3 training courses are also a great option if you’re looking to study for a degree without any A Levels, as Level 3 qualifications carry UCAS tariff points, which are needed to be able to apply for a university course.

Is a Level 3 course right for me?

Our Higher Level Skills courses are aimed at those looking to gain new skills in order to get back into work, as well as those looking to enter a particular industry or sector for the first time.

For example, our Principles of Management course is ideal for both those who are unemployed and looking to advance their careers by gaining a more senior role, as well as those who are looking at changing careers without starting in an entry level position.

The Level 3 certificate provides a great opportunity for you to not only learn new skills and knowledge, but to improve your CV and job prospects.
