Digital Production, Design and Development T Level (Pearson) The Digital T Level is a new full time level 3 technical course, equivalent to three A Levels. Leading digital employers have helped to develop the qualification to equip young people with the skills that the industry needs. A key feature of the course is a mandatory industry placement of at least 45 days. As well as the industry placement, T Level study programmes comprise a ‘core’ set of underpinning knowledge, concepts and skills, tailored for their chosen industry, and occupation and specialist training covering occupational or industry-specific skills. Digital Production, Design and Development is suitable for students who plan a career in software development and will develop the following specialist skills: • Analyse a problem to define requirements and acceptance criteria aligned to user needs • Design, implement and test software • Change, maintain and support software • Create solutions in a social and collaborative environment • Discover, evaluate and apply reliable sources of knowledge • Apply ethical principles and manage risks in line with legal and regulatory requirements when developing software Most T Level students will progress, from college, straight to work or onto a higher level or degree apprenticeship. However, the qualification does accrue UCAS points and will allow progression to university.
