The University Vocational Awards Council (UVAC) is a not-for-profit organisation
set up in 1999 by the higher and further education sector. We provide an
independent voice for our members on matters relating to technical and
professional higher level learning including higher and degree apprenticeship.
Our mission is to champion higher level vocational learning. UVAC has a
membership of approximately 90, including universities, higher education
institutions, awarding bodies, service providers and individuals. We believe in:
The importance of meeting the higher vocational learning needs of individuals
and employers The validity of work-based routes into practical, work-applied
higher education – with no artificial barriers The value of experiential and
reflective learning The value of work-based and work-related higher education
