WHERE WILL THIS COURSE LEAD? The following pathways are designed for roles within Manufacturing and Processing sector include: Level 4, Pathway 3: Mechanical Engineer • HNC Manufacturing Engineering • HNC Mechanical Engineering Level 4, Pathway 5: Electrical/ Electronics Engineer • HNC Electrical & Electronic Engineering • HNC Instrumentation & Control Engineering Level 4, Pathway 8: Maintenance Engineer • HNC Electrical & Electronic Engineering • HNC Instrumentation & Control Engineering • HNC Mechanical Engineering WHAT WILL I STUDY? This apprenticeship is formed of two qualifications: The technical qualification (HNC) can be selected from the above pathways, you will attend on a day release basis over two years. The vocational qualification is a Level 4 NVQ Extended Diploma in Engineering Manufacture with units chosen in consultation with your employer. HOW WILL THIS COURSE BE DELIVERED? These courses are delivered through classroom teaching and practical workshops. You will also be allocated an assessor who will visit you in the workplace to support the development of the evidence required for the NVQ level 4. HOW WILL I BE ASSESSED?
