    Hi all, next year I will be finishing my course and will have obtained a level 6 in fashion industry practice modules in this are Event production,management ect.
    I have a level 5 in Business Fashion the modules in this were marketing, retail practice,communications, buying and creative stuff.
    I have been getting the grant for the 2 years and I will be 20 when I finish level 6.Just wondering when I finish could I do a full time Business Fas course and get some kind of social benefit? Fas courses are level 5 and 6 as well and I have heard you get nothing for going back and doing a level 5.
    Hope some one can help

    Why not go on to level 7 or 8, im sure there's something you can do with event management, or a business degree. You could probably still be entitled to a grant. I have no experience of FAS courses and i'm not trying to put them down, but I would be of the thinking that going onto a level 8 and getting a degree would be a better option.

    You will not be able to go back to level 5 or 6 and get a grant, you have to keep moving forward.
