NPA Esports update

The Qualification Development Team (QDT) for NPA Esports met today for the third time. The main task today was to agree a qualification structure.

The following structure was approved.

  1. Esports: The Esports Industry
  2. Esports: Game Performance
  3. Esports: Organising & Promoting Events.

This will be the same at each of the three levels (National 4, National 5 and Higher), which will help with progression between levels and multi-level teaching. Each of the units will be available on a stand-alone basis, too. It’s an important milestone to get the structure agreed. We can now progress to writing the component units in May and validation of the award in June.

The qualification will be available to centres from August. Please contact Megan for more information about the qualification.
