Ofqual compliance and quality assurance for EPAs and qualifications

Welcome to Awarding First – working to support quality standards and compliance for EPAOs and AOs  

I hope you are staying safe and well right now.

I've spent the most recent 18-24 months covering various AO/EPAO roles which has been good, but now I'm back to producing news articles and guidance on wider issues and needs in the sector. I hope you like my content.

The main things I'm working on right now are the requirements on EPAOs to obtain Ofqual recognition; and for AOs, its centre assessment standards scrutiny (CASS).

Its always a busy time with Ofqual regulation. The detail of what we do and how, the quality of delivery, and quality assurance to maintain public confidence in VTQs has to be a constantly evolving. At the same time we are navigating more extra-ordinary regulatory frameworks, more consultations and delivering assessment modifications. 

If you just want to talk about, or get an opinion on something I'm commenting on, get in touch. Or if you need some direction or work done to get things put in place. I'm sure I can help you. I bring extensive and wide-ranging experience, a different perspectives and in-depth know-how. Talk to me if you are looking for solutions, developments, one-off projects and to achieve your goals.
