BTEC?

[Little Pumpkins]

Hiya

Just a question

I have a BTEC National Diploma In Childhood Studies, I've been told this is the same as NVQ Level 3 is that right.

I got told when I called about the NHS network, I knew you had to be a childminder for six months before you could join it. We had a nice chat and I told her I did my BTEC for two years. She said I could join the network now as it was a level 3 grad is that right.

Ahh well looks like maybe the course wasnt a total loss (as the majority of my tutors were not into children)

According to the training directory I have in front of me, yes, BTEC National Diploma is Level 3...

Congratulations... sounds like you did it against the odds as well! :D

Now.. what level 4 are you going to do? :laughing: I'm doing Open University E123 and E124 - together they make up a level 4 and they're quite interesting... :D
