Year 1 - The Level 4 units lay the foundation of learning by providing a broad introduction to digital technologies and to a range of digital technology specialist functions. This
develops and strengthens core skills, while preparing you to study specialist.
subjects at Level 5. After studying the Level 4 units you will have sound knowledge of the basic concepts of digital technology. You will be competent in a range of subject-specific skills as well as general skills and qualities relevant to key areas of digital-technology-related business.
Year 2 - The Level 5 units give you the opportunity to specialise in a digital-technology related occupational area or to progress to degree-level study. The units prepare you to move on to specific areas of digital technologies at Level 6 or to enter employment with the qualities and abilities necessary for roles that require personal responsibility and decision making. After studying a Level 5 Higher National Diploma in Digital Technologies you will have a sound understanding of the principles in their area of specialist study and will know how to apply those principles more widely in the area of digital technologies. You will be able to perform effectively in their specialist area
