Mae cyrsiau IVET yn cynnig cyflwyniad cyffredinol i feysydd galwedigaethol a gellir eu astudio mewn ysgolion a cholegau; mae CVET yn gyrsiau galwedigaethol arbenigol sy’n cymhwyso’r deiliad i weithio mewn swyddi penodol ac maent ar gael yn y coleg yn unig. Mae pob cymwyster bellach yn cael ei fesur ar un raddfa er mwyn iddynt fod yn gyfartal. Mae’r dull yma o fesur perfformiad yn sicrhau bod cymwysterau o bob math, ar yr un lefel, yn cael eu cydnabod fel cymwysterau â statws a gwerth cyfartal. The partnership offers GCSE, GCE (A or AS Levels), IVET (such as BTEC and City & Guilds) and CVET (mainly City & Guilds) courses. IVET courses offer a general introduction to vocational areas and can be studied in schools and colleges; CVET are specialist vocational courses that qualify the holder to work in specific jobs and are available only in college. All qualifications are now measured on a single scale so that they are equivalent. This method of measuring performance ensures that qualifications of all types, at the same level, are recognised as qualifications having the same status and value.
