Through a detailed gap analysis, we highlight what you’ve already achieved, where criteria has already been covered and and what gaps is still required to be filled to achieve the qualification, ensuring you don’t repeat criteria you’ve already completed.

          In many cases, Prior Learning can be recognised and counted towards your new qualification. We’ll liaise directly with the awarding body on your behalf to confirm what can be accepted, giving you a clear, efficient, and streamlined route to achieving the qualification, and if applicable, the CSCS Card you need.
