Higher National and Vocational Qualifications: Quality Assurance Guidance update

We have recently updated our Qualification Verification Process Guidance document, which is available on the ‘Quality assurance documents and videos’ page of our website (under ‘Qualifications verification’). Please take time to read through the updated guidance.

Please also see the accompanying Qualification Quality Assurance Criteria document and refer to ‘Appendix A: Enhanced Guidance to centres on managing assessment conditions’ which relates to specific qualification requirements/conditions included in unit specifications, arrangement documents, and group award strategy documents. The updated guidance relates directly to Criterion 4.4 of the Quality Assurance Criteria.
