Accreditation

TQUK is an Awarding Organisation recognised by the Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation (Ofqual, https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/ofqual) in England, CCEA Regulation in Northern Ireland. TQUK offers qualifications which are regulated by Ofqual and, in some cases, by CCEA Regulation, sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) and are listed on the Register of Regulated Qualifications (http://register.ofqual.gov.uk/). Qualifications are designed to support and encourage learners to develop their knowledge and skills. This development may result in progression into employment or career development in the workplace.  These qualifications also allow learners to progress onto further qualifications.  

Training Qualifications UK (TQUK) creates opportunities for people. “We do things differently here” they say. Born in 2013, Training Qualifications UK is the most contemporary and creative Awarding Organisation in the UK. Priding themselves on being flexible and adapting their services to suit everyone.

 

They design qualifications that pop out from the crowd and give people skills and knowledge to do the same. Those who take their qualifications see real change in their lives, careers, and personal outlooks. TQUK champion innovation, creativity, flexibility, and dynamism. TQUK was approved by Ofqual in September 2013 and since then they had remained committed to repaying that commitment through constant improvement and delivery of the very best products and services.

They’re developing systems, pioneering change, and working with experts across the awarding and apprenticeship sectors, new customers are choosing to work with them daily. They take the complete responsibility to their Recognised Centres seriously. They work all year round to refine and improve their portfolio and find ways to offer the best value for money.

An awarding body with a difference that is refreshing, welcome to the revolution.
