The EAL Building Services Engineering (Level 3) - Electrotechnical Installation qualification has been developed to allow those in work-based learning to demonstrate and enhance their occupational knowledge, skills and understanding within their BSE trade.
It is aimed at learners who have either achieved the Foundation in Construction and the Built Environment (Level 2), or will be completing the Core in Construction and Building Services Engineering (Level 2) learning and assessments while in their apprenticeship. This qualification will enable learners to go on to study other Level 3 BSE courses relevant to their choice of trade.

It is suitable for:

• learners aged 16+ currently working in the trade area
• learners who have either passed the Foundation in Construction and the Built Environment qualification or will be completing their Foundation learning and assessments while in their apprenticeship
• learners who have completed the EAL Progression in Building Services Engineering (Level 2) in the electrical pathway.

The focus of the assessments is for the learner to fully demonstrate the knowledge, skills and understanding set out in the qualification content.
The learner will be assessed in a number of ways to provide a clear indication of their learning. For this qualification, the learner must successfully complete:
• Three On-screen assessments consisting of a range of multiple-choice question types.

• A Practical Project made up of three sections that requires the learner to show their planning, performing and evaluating skills.
• A Professional Discussion that contains one section, including the learner’s reflection on completion of their Practical Project.
• A Safety Critical Test consisting of centre marked practical tasks.

Due to the nature of the assessments, the Practical Project must be undertaken prior to the Professional Discussion.
