About Us

We were established to offer our centres and customers exceptionally high standards of regulated qualifications. From our experiences of other awarding bodies, we have been accredited by, our opinion is some were concerned about income apposed to our centre, professional integrity and learners experience.

Our philosophy is to reward the centres that are complaint and active with zero accreditation fees and those that need our support and time should pay for it apposed to other bodies that charge you regardless.

Our industry experts are trained to be supportive to centres and learners and to develop them in to excellent centres. We have developed more simpler systems for administration of qualifications and certification.

Our qualifications are designed by industry experts, with the learner and their journey in mind always. Our main criteria’s is that everyone can take the qualification and we can offer reasonable adjustments to those that may need it. We prefer informal assessment methods opposed to formal written examinations when the qualification rules will allow us to do so, to prevent prejudice against individuals.

We involve our customers, centres, learners and industry experts in deciding which qualifications make our portfolio, so if you feel the market is missing a great qualification no matter how short or long please contact our team of experts.

On an annual basis we survey our centres and ask for feedback on how relevant our qualification is, so if you feel they need change or adapting please do not hesitate to contact us.  We are always developing and adding to our portfolio, so watch out for our emails, website news for the latest qualifications.

We are proud to be different to most awarding bodies, we will not charge centres initial or annual accreditation fees providing they are fully active and complaint and can demonstrate compliance at initial accreditation. As a centre we want you to just be pay for your competitive certification fees, however those that want to be non-complaint will need to be given more support and that will occur a fee as you would expect.

Our centres benefit from comprehensive support from qualification regulating experts. We offer a five-star mentoring service to help your business succeed at every stage. As well great conferences, continuous professional development (CPD) and fabulous resources.  Our centres are treated with the upmost respect and encouraged to be the best with our very supportive External Quality Assurers and team based at our head office.

We have support available longer than most awarding bodies, as we understand not all businesses are open 9 to 5 Monday to Friday, we have someone available to help, support and listen on average 8 am to 8 pm, 7 days a week including most bank holidays.

We care about centres, their customers, learners and we make sure the professional integrity of the process, qualifications and experience are never compromised.
