Core Skills Units

Core Skills Units are context free qualifications which can be used to develop a learning programme or to provide a means of certificating evidence from existing learning programmes.

There are NQ Core Skills Units and Workplace Assessed Core Skills Units. The standards for the Units are the same, although the Workplace Units are written in simpler language and are designed to be assessed in the workplace, in simulated workplace conditions or a work placement.
