How you’d get it
How you’d get this certificate
- Zavmo teaches you. You learn the units one-to-one with an AI tutor, on your own work.
- You register with an approved centre. That is a college, training provider or employer ETC Awards Limited has approved to offer this qualification. Zavmo is not an approved centre, so you register with them, not with us.
- The centre assesses, and ETC Awards Limited awards. A qualified assessor at the centre judges your evidence, and the certificate comes from ETC Awards Limited.
01What it is
This Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Mechanical Manufacturing Engineering is aimed at learners working in the engineering sector. Competence is developed in areas such as operating CNC milling machines and producing composite assemblies, while complying with regulations.
These are the units ETC Awards Limited registers against this qualification. It is a catalogue, not a syllabus. Which of them you take depends on the combination the qualification requires, and that is set by the awarding body rather than by us. Every unit here is regulated. Zavmo teaches towards them on your own work, and work done here is recognised as prior learning under the agreements we hold.
Zavmo is not an awarding body, is not an approved centre, and is not affiliated with ETC Awards Limited. It does the teaching and the mapping. ETC Awards Limited sets this qualification and awards it, and a qualified human assessor makes the assessment decision.

04The credits
The credits, and who awards them
Level 2 credits are regulated, and they are awarded by ETC Awards Limited rather than by Zavmo. They don’t vanish when a subscription ends or a website closes. They travel to any employer, and Zavmo keeps the map of what you have covered and what is next.

Each one is a real unit registered against this qualification.
How you’d practise it
You don’t watch this. You do it.
You are not assessed on remembering this. You are assessed on applying it, analysing it, evaluating it and producing something. So that is what the practice is: projects, role play and your own live cases, with a tutor in the room.
The Navigator · your what-if tutor Illustration The Navigator Your plan for “Operating Shaping, Planing or Slotting Machines” assumes the same two people are free in March. What have you seen that makes you slightly uneasy about that?
You One of them has been pulled onto the migration twice already. Probably fine.
The Navigator That is the thread worth pulling. Let us build the version where it happens a third time and find the move that works either way.
- Bring your own plan Create
For “Operating Shaping, Planing or Slotting Machines” you bring the plan you are actually working on, not a case study. Zavmo pulls on the assumptions in it until the weak one shows.
- Draft the real one Create
You do “Using and interpreting engineering data and documentation” on a real document of your own. Zavmo works on the draft you have to send anyway, so the coursework and the job are the same piece of work.
