QCA
- 2005 Policy Research
- QCA was exploring the value of a common centre approval process for awarding bodies - with the objective of streamlining the tasks undertaken by awarding bodies and easing the burden of bureaucracy. We carried out a major analysis to explore the common requirements needed for such a process to work - and produced a report with recommendations for the questions to be asked as part of the common process.
- 2002 Policy Planning Research
- We were commissioned to carry out internal project work for QCA to feed into their policy planning and implementation of accreditation procedures.
- 1999 Risk Assessment Project
- We consulted with awarding bodies to identify what available data could be used in risk assessment and feed into a central model.
- 1999 Review of National Occupational Standards Approved by QCA during 1998-1999
- We reviewed the work policy and procedures of the QCA Standards Approval Group in approving National Occupational Standards.
- 1999 QCA Risk Assessment Part III
- We continued the work begun earlier in the year to provide QCA with a consultation paper and accompanying questionnaire, which would be sent to all awarding bodies involved in the NVQ system.
- 1999 QCA Risk Assessment Part II
- We carried out a second stage consultation with key awarding bodies to gain their views on a common model for risk assessment in safeguarding qualifications.
