About this course

Level 2 Mechanical Manufacturing Engineering. Work-based training at your workplace.

You learn while you work, building competence in your engineering role over 12 months. The course suits a wide range of occupations, including CNC machining, manual machining, production assembly, and composite manufacturing. You choose a pathway that matches your job role. No prior qualifications are required, as long as your role supports the qualification's assessment requirements.

You'll finish with an NVQ Diploma in Mechanical Manufacturing Engineering.

Who this course is for

Candidates wishing to demonstrate competence in their mechanical manufacturing occupation. The qualification is applicable to a wide variety of engineering machinists (both CNC and manual), production assembly, or composite manufacturing occupations within the sector, dependent on the pathway chosen.

Entry requirements

The candidate must be in a role within the workplace that will support the qualification requirements and must have the potential to achieve the assessment criteria set out in the units.
