You’ll be helping to create the workforce of the future. As outlined in the Great Jobs report by City & Guilds many of the UK’s essential industries are understaffed, with many employers are unable to fill vacancies due to a lack of skills.
By providing feedback on qualification content and assessments you’re helping ensure training is in line with industry needs. Making sure current industry practices are accurately reflected so employers, such as yourself, can be confident learners are equipped with the right knowledge and skills to enter work in the sector.
“Joining the validation group was an easy decision for us and was key in helping us to ensure the programs were fit for the future and delivered the development we wanted for our employees and sector. However, joining the validation group gave is so much more than we expected, and we are so glad we took the decision to join. Via the validation group, not only did it give us a chance to ensure the quality of programmes, but it allowed us to network, inspire and be inspired by the people that we have met through the group.”
Robert Watts, Consultant Capability-360
“Employers are the ultimate beneficiaries so we need to ensure the content is relevant and challenging, so the learners not only get the best experience but can use their technical qualification as underpinning knowledge for any future career or higher apprenticeship.”

T Levels are the ‘gold standard’ in technical education in England and are available to 16–19-year-olds upon completion of GCSEs. They are a two-year programme providing an alternative to apprenticeships and A Levels.
T Levels have been developed with employers; employers continue to be involved by reviewing programme content and assessments regularly. This ensures T Level programmes equip learners with the skills and knowledge required to successfully join the workforce within their chosen industry.
