Become A T Level Partner

Welcome T Level students into your team and support the next generation of digital talent by offering an employer placement.

What are T Levels?

T Levels are advanced technical qualifications for 16–19-year-olds, designed in collaboration with employers like ARM, BBC and Cisco. Our Digital T Level equips students with the skills to thrive as junior software developers and data analysts, ready to add value from day one of their industry placement.

There’s nowhere else like this; that provides the same opportunities, that brings the same like-minded people together. You’re not going to find anywhere else like Ada.
