Occupational Specialism

• The occupational specialism

contains skills and knowledge

that build upon the learning

that takes place in the core of

the Technical Qualification.

• This synoptic approach

provides a balanced content

and assessment approach that

allows students to fully explore

this underpinning content in

detail to achieve competency.

Getting Ready to Teach (GRTT) Events

What are GRTT events?

These free events are delivered live in a face to face seminar environment with a

selection of centres who have pre-registered via our website.

What will I learn at these events for the T Levels?

During these events construction industry specialist trainers will guide you on how to

practically deliver the spec and SAM with a focus on planning your delivery. The

trainer will also help you better understand the assessment methodology of the

qualification.

When will these events start?April. An email will be sent to everyone attending this webinar once the date is set.
