We say...
"This course is at Level 2, which means it is roughly at GCSE level. It represents a vocational alternative to the school-based GCSE and does not have any of the latter's disadvantages in terms of coursework, oral/aural assessment, or fixed date examinations. Particularly useful as a toe-dipping exercise to give a flavour of the subject."
