Regulating tranche 2 V Levels at subject level

A series of 6 consultations on how we will regulate the second tranche of V Levels, to be first taught in September 2028.

We plan to launch 6 consultations seeking views on the Subject Level Conditions (SLCs), requirements and guidance we propose to set for the 11 V Level subjects due to be first taught in September 2028.

  • V Level in healthcare science and technology

Enterprise and professional services:

Construction:

  • V Level in construction: design, surveying, planning

Engineering and manufacturing:
