BHS Stage 4 NVQ equivalent?

[soloequestrian]

Have to make up a CV and would like to couch my BHS qualifications in a language the normal people will understand... I know the AI is equivalent of UKCC Level 2 but can't find equivalents for the non-teaching parts - anyone know?
Thanks in advance!

BHS Stage 3 is classed having 35 tariff points and a level 3 NVQ here.... https://www.ucas.com/ucas/undergraduate/getting-started/entry-requirements/tariff/tariff-tables/2086

BHS don't seem to have sought an equivalency for stage 4 - perhaps it is deemed too professional a qualification for that.

Followup... PTT is the equivalent of UKCC Level 2. But to reach UKCC level 3 you have to have the Intermediate Instructor test (of which stage 4 is a part obviously) - here... http://www.bhs.org.uk/training-and-qualifications/exams-and-qualifications/ukcc

Stage 3 also appears to equate to an advanced apprenticeship if that helps here http://www.equestrian-qualifications.org.uk/apprenticeships.html

I've found a couple of sites which describe the Stage 4 as equivalent to a foundation degree but that doesn't seem to be recognized by Ofqual or the NCF. The next recognized stage seems to be the II.

Obviously stage 4 is well recognized within the industry though!

Hi, thanks for all of this! I might ring the BHS and see what they say, from the horse's mouth as it were! At least it wasn't just me being thick when I couldn't find the national framework equivalent...
