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.
