COURSE OVERVIEW
The T Level in Health is a brand new and exciting level 3 course to be delivered from September 2021. This qualification is equivalent to three A levels and will give you the key knowledge and experience to start a career in the health sector.

You will undertake a work placement in a relevant health setting, to prepare you for employment as a frontline health care practitioner.
