is it NVQ 3 much more difficult than NVQ 2 ?

[baibajulie]

I have finished NVQ 2 and I would like to do NVQ 3 but I'm worried how hard is going to be with full time work and a kid.
Anyone who have done both levels, could advise me,please.
many thanks to everyone who spared their time in helping out with some questions.

of course it is and so it should be. they arent a continuum. you need to go away and embed your learning first then get a job/placement where you are operating as a level 3 then do the course. level 3 is A level standard. in my college you cant do it for a yr then you need to be somewhere where you are a keyworker and planner.
