With future industry skills in high demand, EAL's 14-19 TechQuals have been designed to inspire and encourage young people to choose careers in engineering, electrical and plumbing.

We understand it is challenging for schools, colleges and UTCs to decide on qualifications that fit your students’ needs. This is where EAL can help.

EAL 14-19 TechQuals are an ideal solution for schools, colleges and UTCs wanting to offer learners a fully recognised, technical qualification as well as seamless progression to apprenticeships and industry careers.

Developed in collaboration with industry employers and offering expert external support, EAL 14-19 TechQuals enable you to demonstrate your commitment to offering learners the highest quality qualifications with genuine employer value and credibility.

In addition, all EAL's Key Stage 4 qualifications count towards the Progress and Attainment 8 measure and the Key Stage 5 Level 3 qualifications have UCAS points accreditation.
