Level 2 Diploma in Engineering

You will learn through practical lessons in our state-of-the-art engineering workshop. Assessment will be through completing a portfolio of work, practical observations, online tests and an extended project.

By the end of
the course, you will have developed a strong foundation in engineering processes
and safe machinery operation.

You can finish
with a Level 2 qualification and get a skilled job however, this programme is
designed to help you move toward a Level 3 qualification, which can lead to
advanced jobs or apprenticeships.

Many
of our learners have progressed to  T Level Engineering courses and are now working within
the Engineering industry.

One T Level learner, Josh, reflected on his
time at College commenting: “I’m really appreciative of the College and my tutor
who supported me in gaining full-time employment in
Manufacturing Engineering. I’m going to be working with the design
process and with CAD. I’m really excited about the future and can’t wait to see
where this role takes me.”

On this course, you’ll work with industry experts on technical projects and gain hands-on experience with new technologies. Our links with top companies mean that you can develop the skills you need to succeed.

You can look forward to participating in site visits and industry talks from companies such as MJAllen and KUKA, who developed the robots used in our Engineering workshops.

Throughout the year, you will take part in regular industry relevant trips, allowing you to see the inner workings of the engineering industry firsthand. Previous trips have included visiting the engineering suites at universities and working with Brompton Bikes.

You will also be encouraged to take part in local and national skills competitions. These competitions put your skill to the test whist helping you feel more confident working outside of the classroom.

There are no fees for this course if you are under 18. If you are aged 19 or above, please contact us for more information about fees and funding.

English and Maths are an important part of the course. If you do not yet have a grade 4/C in GCSE English and Maths, you’ll be supported to study these subjects alongside your main course.
