What are the different levels of<br />
vocational qualifications?<br />
Level 1<br />
Introductory or<br />
beginner level.<br />
Level 1 courses are<br />
equivalent to GCSE<br />
grade 1-3 and you’ll<br />
need one GCSE to<br />
study one of these<br />
courses.<br />
Level 2<br />
Intermediate<br />
level.<br />
Level 2 courses are<br />
equivalent to GCSE<br />
grades 4-9 and you’ll<br />
need three GCSEs at<br />
grade 3 or above to<br />

hair and beauty the highest level you can start at<br />
is Level 2 as you won’t have the experience or skills<br />
needed to go straight onto a Level 3 course.<br />
