When undertaking a qualification that does not appear on the governments' lists as eligible for funding for specific age ranges, users must be aware of legal requirements. Not all qualifications are suitable for all age ranges.
This qualification is approved as a technical certificate and so forms part of the Customer Service apprenticeship framework.
Learners may progress to employment, eg to roles involving the monitoring and development of the quality of customer service in an organisation, or roles leading teams or departments.
Learners may also progress to other level 3 qualifications such as the Level 3 BTEC National Award/Certificate/Diploma in Business. They may also progress to Level 4 qualifications such as the Level 4 NVQ in Customer Service, or to higher level qualifications such as the Leevl 5 BTEC Award/Certificate/Diploma in Management Studies.
This qualification will be assessed through one multiple choice test. This test will holistically assess the underpinning knowledge and understanding of the core units of the Level 3 NVQ in Customer Service.
