T Level Technical Qualification in Marketing

The course is delivered in the classroom and also out on location. The TL students work in and around local businesses throughout the course. Alongside the classroom, students have worked with small businesses, attended business networking events and worked on live briefs with business professionals.

Previous live briefs included working with the local business community in Stamford on a Christmas marketing campaign, working with a local farm and play park to support promotion of their Autumn events and managing internal college events such as World Mental Health Day.

Assessment methods will include written assignments, presentations, project work, work-based assessments, and continuous evaluation of work-based learning experiences. There are two core exams and an employer set project in Year 1, and an extended project in Year 2 designed to allow judgement of the learner to be made across different categories of performance.

The overall grade is subject to completion/achievement of all T Level requirements, not just the components of the technical qualification. You will also be required to complete 315 hours of a relevant industry placement.

Trips, visits and guest speakers are an essential part of your course and they develop your knowledge of different career opportunities and allow you to add to the skills you are learning at College. Trips and visits may come at an additional cost of £100. A yearly fee for trips and visits is payable at the beginning of term. You will participate in Enterprise challenges and create your own small business. You will meet successful business people from different business sectors and backgrounds to inspire you and get top tips for future employment.

It’s really important to understand that successful completion of your Industry Placement hours is a mandatory requirement for passing your T Level course. This placement is not just an add-on; it’s an integral part of your learning journey and is essential for demonstrating the skills and knowledge you’ve gained.

Therefore, please be aware that if the required Industry Placement hours are not completed, you will not achieve your T Level qualification.

We’re here to support you in finding and succeeding in your placement, so please don’t hesitate to reach out to our dedicated Work Experience Team if you have any questions or need guidance.
