A BTEC Level 3 Diploma is a practical, work-related course. You learn by completing projects and assignments that are based on realistic workplace situations, activities and demands. As well as learning about the employment area you have chosen, you develop the skills you would need to begin a career in Music Technology. This qualification is equivalent to one A Level. This course provides a natural progression from the BTEC Level 2 Extended Certificate in Music (ideally with the Music Technology units). You are expected to have achieved at least a grade B in Music at GCSE, or a Level 2 Distinction in Music BTEC, or have significant musical experience that is of a similar standard. Some experience of music technology equipment and software is essential.
Level 2 BTEC Music at Merit or above and GCSE grade 5 in English (Language or Literature) and Maths.
All units are assessed and graded via coursework activities (including those externally assessed, which are completed under controlled conditions) and an overall grade for the unit is awarded. Each unit grade is assigned a set of points, which are totalled up at the end of the course to provide an overall qualification grade.
