T Level in Management and Administration

City & Guilds has developed the Technical Qualification (TQ) for Management and Administration as part of the Business and Administration T Level route.

How is the T Level TQ structured?

The Management and Administration TQ is split into two main components: the Core, which is assessed by externally set written exams and an Employer-Set Project (ESP), and an Occupational Specialism (OS) which is assessed by a synoptic assignment.

The following Occupational Specialisms are available within each TQ:

Business Improvement
Business Support
Team Leadership/Management
