NVQ Academy

nvq academy

At NVQ Academy we have specialised in the delivery of Vocational Qualifications within the Childcare and Care Sectors since 1996. NVQ Academy works with Organisations to establish a system that streamlines the qualification process by using naturally occurring Performance Evidence and utilises your own in-house training for Knowledge evidence.  The use of Work-Based assessment allows for the creation of an integrated rolling programme of qualifications that can occur within your own time/requirement frameworks. We are not reliant on Government funding and therefore staff do not need to complete extraneous elements required for funding only purposes - and can concentrate on any regulatory bodies (and/or your own) requirements. Our use of in-house Work-Based Assessors* also eliminates the need for outside personnel to visit your care settings.  This is valued by our clients who have sensitive environments. *Training and Qualification (if necessary) of an appropriate senior member of your staff included in package price. Note: Minimum number of Learners apply If you do not have a senior member of staff available to act as a Work-Based Assessor - please contact us to discuss alternative arrangements. Please note - All the Qualifications offered by NVQ Academy are vocational qualifications and require the Learner/s to be working within the Childcare/Care Sector in order to provide the relevant evidence.  We are unable to deliver Qualifications directly to single Learners or those who are not employed in the Care Sector. NVQ Academy offers the following Awards throughout England: * Level 3 Diploma Residential Childcare * Level 5 Diploma Leadership and Management for Residential Childcare * Level 3 Diploma Children and Young People's Workforce - Social Care Pathway - Learning and Development Pathway * Level 3 Diploma in Adult Care * Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Children and Young People Services - Residential Management Pathway - Management Pathway - Advanced Practice Pathway * Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care Services - Residential Management Pathway - Management Pathway -Advanced Practice Pathway * Level 3 Certificate Assessing Vocational Achievement - offered as part of Diploma Packages * subject to minimum number of Candidates at site and availability of an appropriate senior member of staff to act as a Work-Based Assessor (Training and Qualification included in package price)
