Setting up and supporting NVQ Centres

We can make it simple
Many organisations are realizing the need to seriously consider the setting up of their own in-house accreditation systems in order to offer NVQs.
Setting up an NVQ centre is a complex process. Understanding the detailed requirements of an effective quality assurance system is one of the fundamental keystones to success.
If you are considering setting up an NVQ Centre in your organisation, the Awarding Bodies who approve Centres insist on rigorous quality assurance arrangements before you can start operating.
What do we do for you?
Interpreting the Awarding Body’s quality assurance requirements, and developing the systems to meet them can be time consuming.
With our years of experience, our consultants can support organisations to implement the use of national standards and NVQs to enhance work-based learning.
We help new and existing centres by alleviating anxiety and reducing workload. We are experienced and highly knowledgeable in providing:
- Advice and support to the organisation to put together the submission to the Awarding Body for Approval
- Advice on the design of the documentation needed for quality assurance and Centre status purposes
- Practical strategies for streamlining the amount of paperwork needed, making processes and procedures easy to understand and implement
- Training and support for the nominated person who will administer and co-ordinate the Centre
- Training and accreditation for assessors and internal verifiers to the required national standards of A1 and V1
- Guidance on training resources and assessment aids which will simplify the generation of evidence
- Improvement projects for existing centres including monitoring procedures and administration.
Centre Management Services
