Vocational Certificate of Education, usually shortened to VCE or Vocational A-Level or AVCE, was a vocational qualification that used to be available in Further Education colleges and school sixth forms in the United Kingdom. ==Subjects and assessment== VCEs were available in many subjects including Information and Communication Technology, Health and Social Care, Hospitality and Management, Leisure and Recreation, Travel and Tourism, Business. Many students prefer the vocational system because they can learn more from hands-on work, though others find it difficult to maintain their motivation because of the constant evaluation and coursework. The qualification was created in September 2000 to replace the Advanced GNVQ, with the main change being that the marking system was altered from the three level Distinction, Merit and Pass system to A–E grading, bringing the AVCE into line with A-Levels. AVCE was intended to lead on to higher education or employment. The AVCE was made up of modules, each covering different aspects of the subject. Some of these modules overlapped and some institutes chose to virtually merge their content. Students had complete a set number of modules in order to qualify for an AVCE: *AVCE Double Award - 12 units (worth two A-levels) *AVCE Single Award - 6 units (worth one A-level) *ASVCE - 3 units (worth one AS-level) Assessment was by a mixture of continuous assessment, based on a portfolio of evidence, and externally set and marked examinations. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vocational Certificate of Education」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
