Are you aged 18–24 and thinking about your next steps? You might be taking a break while you decide what to do next, in a job that isn’t meeting your ambitions, or wondering how you might be able to combine higher education and work, or looking for ways to increase your chances of securing an apprenticeship. Higher Technical Qualifications (HTQs) are Higher Education qualifications in England that are focused on the skills and knowledge employers need for higher skilled jobs. They typically follow qualifications such as A Levels, T Levels and BTECs, and are shorter than a university degree. They are often available part-time in a local FE college and are increasingly available as short modules. HTQs can be a great option for people who want to learn and gain new skills early in their career, are interested in sectors like engineering, health, IT and childcare, and are looking for really accessible routes into higher education.
By the end of the session, you will know:
- What HTQs are and where to find out more about them
- Why an HTQ could be a strong choice when planning your next steps
- What support is available to help you access an HTQ course
