Course Information
​
A T Level course is the perfect choice for those who enjoy variety and hands-on learning and want to get valuable work experience in a growing industry.
80% of your time will be spent in the classroom, and 20% of your time will be spent gaining practical skills in a real workplace!
A career in Health is much more than just a job – it’s a hugely rewarding vocation that very special kinds of people can thrive in.
As part of an Adult Nursing team, you'll support the treatment and care of adults with a wide variety of long-term and short-term conditions. These could include heart disease, injuries from an accident, pneumonia, arthritis, diabetes or cancer. Not only will you need to help treat their physical health conditions, but you'll also need to build trust with your patients and provide emotional support.
The Level 3 T Level in Health: Supporting the Adult Nursing Team pathway is a full-time, two-year qualification that is equivalent to three A Levels.
It will provide you with the skills and knowledge you need to succeed in this vital and fulfilling industry, teaching you the technical skills and specialised knowledge that employers are looking for.
Taught by our industry-expert faculty at our state-of-the-art facility, and including real-world workplace placements, your first year will provide you with a solid foundation for your future career in Health.
It will cover health and science concepts, theories and principles, the management of data, health and safety, clinical best practices, and the key regulations you need in any healthcare role.
Your second year will focus far more on building your understanding of the Adult Nursing environment and how you will support the team in meeting the needs of adults, assisting nurses and other team members to make sure you are doing the best you can for your patients.
