It does depend on what the award is in. Some subjects can take you straight to a job - childcare, care, beauty and hairdressing. Others will require you to go on to third level as your skill level will not be high enough to go into employment - nursing, computer studies.

Of our students the most employable have proven to be health care assistants, fitness instructors, childcare, beauty therapy. Also some IT.

It stood good to me on my CV. It looks better than a blank space, thats for sure.
