The BTEC Level 2 First Certificate and Diploma in Music are designed to introduce learners to working in the sector or prepare them for further study, such as a BTEC National qualification or an appropriate NVQ. Learners can choose from a wide variety of options to develop their skills in specific areas. Specialist units include DJ technology, rehearsal techniques and working as a musical ensemble.

The BTEC Firsts in Music were replaced by the QCF-accredited BTEC Level 2 Certificate, Extended Certificate and Diploma in Music from September 2010. Find out more
