produced by T Level panels based on the same standards as those used for apprenticeships. The outline content
formed the basis of this qualification and has been further developed by NCFE.
The TQ in health has 2 components:
• core component:
o route core component
o pathway core component
• occupational specialism component:
o Dental Nursing

Unit in brief
Learners will develop the skills and behaviours needed to progress to the next stage in their
learning, identifying progression opportunities and creating a plan to enable them to get there.
Unit introduction
What would you like to do when you finish this course? Perhaps you would like to spend more time
learning about the subject you are studying at the moment? Or you may want to do something
completely different. Before you decide what your next step is, you need to know what you are
good at, what your interests are and what your end goal is.
This unit will help you find out what opportunities are available to you and how to get to the next
stage. You will carry out a self-audit, identifying what your strengths are and what you need to
develop to be able to meet your progression goals. You will learn how to set goals and plan ways to
achieve them. You will then produce a personal progression plan to help you reach the next step in
your life.
The skills you develop in this unit will be good preparation when applying for another course or
training programme.
Learning aims
In this unit you will:
A Explore the skills and behaviours needed to meet personal progression goal
B Produce a progression plan to meet intended progression goal.
