T Levels at NKC Dartford College are two-year, Level 3 qualifications designed for students aged 16–19. Equivalent to three A Levels, they combine classroom learning with practical, real-world experience to help you prepare for skilled employment, an apprenticeship, or further study.
Each T Level includes a significant industry placement, giving you the opportunity to apply your knowledge in a real working environment. This hands-on experience helps you develop the technical skills, workplace behaviours, and confidence needed for your future career.
Every T Level student must complete an industry placement that lasts a minimum of 315 hours (750 for Early Years). This is to provide young people the invaluable opportunity to put their learning, knowledge and skills into practice in a real workplace environment. Industry placements also give employers a unique opportunity to develop new talent and help young people become work ready.

Students who achieve a T Level will get a nationally recognised certificate which employers will use as evidence in their recruitment.
