BTEC Advanced Award
BSM has teamed up with Edexcel (issuer of BTEC awards) to provide you with a practical, flexible route to achieving the BTEC Advanced Award 'Developing Best Practice for Driving Instruction', which is equivalent in standard to an A-level or NVQ in Driving Instruction.
The BTEC Advanced Award is based around BSM's CPD programme. To achieve it, you need to complete a minimum of three CPD courses: two mandatory one-day practical courses and a further one-day course (or two half-day courses) of your own choosing.
The BTEC Advanced Award can help you to:

- Gain differentiation from other instructors
