Qualification Progression
On completion, learners may progress to an intermediate, or potentially an advanced, apprenticeship in a range of sport and active leisure sector areas, or to Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications, such as; Vocational, A-levels, Technical Certificates, Technical Levels and Applied Generals.
This qualification may lead to paid employment or unpaid voluntary roles in leading sports activities, working as part of a coaching team as an assistant or support role. This could include supporting the delivery of activities within primary schools or securing a part-time role within a leisure facility, holiday club or a community based participation programme. It is essential to note that learners are not able to lead activities autonomously until they are 18 years old. The qualification will support an application for an intermediate apprenticeship in activity leadership, coaching, exercise and fitness or leisure operations for learners seeking to progress to a paid in-training role rather than opting for traditional post-16 educational routes.
