Course Summary

Digital is everywhere and increasingly influences everything we do. As a result, the world continues to need experts to make sense of technology and its growing impact to show us the way, to simplify the complex; and to be amply rewarded for being both guides and gatekeepers. There are jobs today that simply did not exist in the past, enabled by technical innovations and the people that create and consume them. The digital future we are part of requires highly skilled individuals to design, implement, maintain and innovate. The demand for technical skills will continue to grow.

The core element of this T Level will boost your knowledge in a range of topics such as programming, coding, the use of data and the different platforms of delivery in the digital industry. It’s a cutting-edge subject, so you’ll also learn about cyber security and come to understand the potential security risks that organisations can face and how to analyse problems and identify solutions through computer programs.

You’ll then choose a specialism designed to support your interests, so you can get deeper into your chosen subject and build up the skills you need for your future job. You can choose from specialist modules in either Cyber Security, Digital Infrastructure, Network Cabling or Digital Support. Then you’ll be able to put everything you learn into practice, with a substantial industry placement of around 45 days. You'll have an amazing opportunity to work with an employer while you study, such as an IT company or department, and gain invaluable experience as well as key skills that employers are looking for.

B&FC's Computing and Digital Technologies department features hi-tech, industry standard equipment to support your success. We have state-of-the-art labs and the latest network engineering equipment. This study programme provides the knowledge and experience to open doors to highly skilled employment or university study, including higher and degree apprenticeships.
