Also available is the BTEC Level 2 Diploma in Teamwork and Personal Development in the Community.  This BTEC mixes theory and practical elements with an emphasis towards teamwork, communication and employment skills including career planning and personal development. Adventurous activities are also included along with volunteering within the Community.  This BTEC is provided through CVQO and more details are available on their website here. This BTEC has recently been updated and includes some options for musicians – more details to follow shortly.

Cadets must be between 16 to 18 enrol in the BTEC Level 2 Programme but, best of all, it is FREE for all Cadets! Cadets can complete up to 77% of the qualification just by participating in their normal Cadet activities.
