Petroc Prospectus | VOCATIONAL STUDY PROGRAMMES WHAT ARE VOCATIONAL STUDY PROGRAMMES?


Vocational courses provide a blend of classroom tuition with practical, hands-on learning, work experience and employability skills. They provide a well-rounded qualification that gives you both the knowledge and the employability skills needed to get you noticed after you leave college, whether you decide to move on to higher education, an apprenticeship or go straight into employment.


ARE THEY RIGHT FOR ME?


If you prefer the practical elements of learning, then vocational courses could be for you. You will join a course at the right level for you and progress as far as you want to go. You could start at Level 1 studying Functional Skills and progress onto university – and beyond!


WHAT CAN I EXPECT?


Not only will you learn in the classroom, you will also spend a lot of your time in the workshop, studio, salon or gym to experience the real-life working environment. You will also participate in work experience and trips to get a real understanding of your future career.


All vocational courses are graded Pass (P), Merit (M), Distinction (D) or Distinction-star (D*). A Distinction* is equivalent to 3 A-levels at A*.
