Higher technical education is post-18 education aligned to technical routes, such as accounting, engineering, management or laboratory science.

The DfE would like to hear your views on plans to:

create a new system to make it clearer which higher technical qualifications provide the skills employers want
work with the Office for Students to recognise and develop high-quality provision of higher technical education
make higher technical education a more positive and popular choice by raising awareness and understanding of it among potential students and employers
