Response to Subcontractor Survey 2007
Transfer of Qualifications at ABC Awards
In order to improve its services to customers ABC Awards intends to rationalise the administration of its portfolio by locating the administration of qualifications within the same sector in the one office.
It is planned that over time the offices will deal with qualifications in the following sectors:
Reading Audio Visual, Art and Design, Fashion and Graphic Design
Taunton Health and Social Care (including Youth Work, Counselling, Reflexology)
Chorley Land Based, Catering
Nottingham Construction, Engineering (including Welding and Motor Vehicle), Business, Languages, Basic Skills and Skills for Working Life

Information about the transfer of Qualifications
New Centre Recognition and Qualification
Approval
ABC Awards has changed its policy on Centre Recognition and Qualification Approval. This is just one of our strategies to help minimise bureaucracy and streamline our approval processes for centres wishing to offer ABC qualifications.
From now on centres which are already approved by other QCA approved awarding bodies will be mutually recognised by ABC Awards. Our Centre Recognition process will simply confirm a centre’s contact details and an agreement to abide by a common set of principles.
Centres which are new to teaching and learning or a particular sector will receive a visit from an appropriately qualified external moderator or verifier who will, as now, confirm that a centre has the appropriate resources in place to ensure that candidates are placed in the best possible position to achieve our awards.
