Level 1 courses have an emphasis on personal development, building confidence in team work and problem-solving and setting the foundations for further study. Students on Level 1 courses are also introduced to the skills and attributes needed for the workplace. All students on Level 1 programmes study English and Maths qualifications to support their main programme and progression.
