Course information

Launch your career in the health and care sector with the T Level in Health with Adult Nursing. This two-year qualification is equivalent to three A Levels and carries UCAS points, giving you the skills, knowledge and professional behaviours needed to progress into skilled employment, higher apprenticeships or university study.

You’ll learn in our state-of-the-art training facilities, featuring a fully equipped clinical health area that replicates a real hospital environment. Here, you’ll develop hands-on skills in patient care, communication, and clinical procedures, supported by expert tutors with professional healthcare experience.

Throughout your studies, you’ll complete an industry placement within the healthcare sector, gaining invaluable real-world experience and insight into working as a health professional.

If you don’t yet meet the entry requirements for a T Level, our team will guide you to the best route for your goals. You may be offered an AAQ course, which allows you to study at Level 3 while retaking English and/or maths. Once you’ve achieved the grades you need, you can progress onto a T Level and continue your journey towards a career in health.
