Used to express something of lower-grade, a downgrade of something, or a rubbish version of something. Also used to refer to a dumb or idiotic person.

Originates from the BTEC qualification said to be taken by dumb people in order to a work-force job.

People taking GCSE courses will often look down on BTEC students, and use the term 'BTEC' as an insult to them.

It can then be more broadly used to mean 'stupid'
'Hey Cameron, you're so rubbish at this, you're so BTEC'

'Why would you do that? That's such a BTEC mistake to make'

Originally a secondary school qualification 'equivalent' to an Alevel. The term has changed meaning to describe something so pathetically stupid, it can only be described as BTEC

A thing that tries to be another thing but is considerably worse that the original. (Originally comes from the inferior qualification that UK students can choose to take instead of the much better GCSEs and A-Levels)
"I hate movies, they are just BTEC books."
