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 Excellence, Achievement & Learning 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 Excellence, Achievement & Learning Limited awards. A qualified assessor at the centre judges your evidence, and the certificate comes from Excellence, Achievement & Learning Limited.
The EAL Level 2 Diploma in Applied STEM for Digital Engineering is designed to provide practical skills and knowledge across various engineering and computing disciplines, focusing on a hands-on learning approach to electronics, automation, and cyber manufacturing processes.
These are the units Excellence, Achievement & Learning 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 Excellence, Achievement & Learning Limited. It does the teaching and the mapping. Excellence, Achievement & Learning Limited sets this qualification and awards it, and a qualified human assessor makes the assessment decision.

See the whole journeyThe credits, and who awards them
Level 2 credits are regulated, and they are awarded by Excellence, Achievement & Learning 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.

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 - Bring your own plan Create
For “Project” 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.
What you leave holding
The standards this credential builds, in the shape the product keeps them
