About this course
This Level 5 Higher National Diploma is a 'top-up' from the L4 Higher National Certificate in Construction & The Built Environment (Civil Engineering pathway). Holders of the Pearson BTEC Level 5 Higher National Diploma will have developed a sound understanding of the principles of civil engineering and will have learned to apply those principles more widely. You will learn to evaluate the appropriateness of different approaches to solving problems. You will be able to perform effectively in your chosen field and have the qualities necessary for employment in situations requiring the exercise of personal responsibility and decision-making. This course allows students to specialise by committing to specific career paths and progression routes to degree-level study. In addition, the qualifications may provide links to industry-related and employer-supported apprenticeship schemes that can provide further opportunities for enhanced employability. On successful completion of the Pearson BTEC Level 5 BTEC Higher National Diploma, students can develop their careers in the construction and the built environment sector through:
● Entering employment
● Continuing existing employment
● Linking with the appropriate vendor accredited certificates
● Committing to Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
● Progressing to university
● Progressing to a higher apprenticeship scheme, in conjunction with progression to a university degree course

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.
While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
