Operating at Level 1 (school-leaver standard) this qualification was developed in 2015 and gives a basic grounding in transport and logistics knowledge.

As it is at basic level, the course is normally run as a single qualification, but the units can be taken as separate modules if that suits the needs of the learner. This course does use one of the units from the Introductory Certificate qualification, so anyone progressing to Level 2 would not need to retake this module.

Students studying our qualifications will automatically gain access to the Knowledge Centre – giving access to an extensive range of best practice and learning material.
