• Three GCSE passes (at ‘C’ level standard). PMI will consider higher qualifications (A level) to be a sufficient entry standard.
• A level 2 qualification, or above, as shown on the regulated qualifications framework of the United Kingdom or overseas qualifications, as judged by UK NARIC, to be equivalent in standard to a level 2 qualification in the UK (or higher). Such qualifications should contain a similar number of learning hours to that of the Level 3 Certificate in Pension Trusteeship. PMI will consider each application on a case by case basis.

However, we would anticipate most learners would be working in the field and/or undertaking the role of trustee, and should a learner possess no such qualification, PMI will consider the employment status and history of a learner’s knowledge, in lieu of qualifications. In such cases, a signed reference letter from employers’ must accompany each application.

All learners must also provide evidence of proficiency in the English Language. In this case it is:

• IELTS 5.0 for the Design pathway (with a minimum of 4.5 in any one skill) or
• B1 (or its equivalent)
