The Level 3 Diploma in Advanced Manufacturing Engineering has been designed to meet the minimum requirements of the Development phase of many of the Trailblazer standards in Engineering, including the Mechatronics Maintenance Technician. It has been designed as a progression opportunity from the Certificate and includes the same mandatory units. Learners completing the Diploma will have to complete a number of additional optional units to meet the minimum requirements, and the structure will allow employers to select optional units that meet the needs of their business. The achievement of this qualification is part of the gateway process towards End-Point Assessment and will enable learners to achieve their Apprenticeship Standard.
This qualification is set to replace Semester’s offering of the BTEC Level 3 National in Engineering
