What is it and what will I learn?
The BTEC Level 2 in Fire and Rescue Services in the Community is a vocational qualification developed in collaboration with the UK Fire Cadets and recognises the key skills young people practice while progressing through the Fire Cadets National Syllabus.
The BTEC Level 2 Award is mapped to the national Fire Cadet Awards 1 and 2.
Learners can expect to study units involving:
- Teamwork and leadership skills used in the Emergency Services
- Careers related to the Fire and Rescue Service
- Functions and responsibilities of the Fire and Rescue Services in the Community
- Casualty Extrication in the Fire and Rescue Service
The qualification not only encourages Fire Cadets to develop their skills, but is also an ideal platform for a career in the Emergency Services.
