You Own Endorsed Qualifications

We at SafeCert Awards provide the accreditation service through our awarding body for both accredited awards listed on the RQF register but we also provide an service to get your own development awards accredited by SafeCert awards which are called endorsed awards so you can then gain SafeCert endorsed certification for your candidates.

Why Choose an Endorsed Award?

Allows you to gain accreditation from a national Awarding Organisation, providing you with the support to ensure your courses are of a high standard.

Customised Accredited Awards  are written and owned by you, not SafeCert Awards, You can also use our logo on any learning materials; and we’ll include your logo on the certificates we award to your candidates.

So why choose Customised Awards?

We’ll evaluate, review and provide advice about your existing learning programme to identify how SafeCert can support you to develop the course. We will then monitor the delivery and assessment. When we endorse a course of learning, we are declaring that we are confident in the centre’s ability to develop and deliver quality courses in their areas of expertise.
We will provide expert feedback about how to develop your learning programme into a specification that has measurable learning outcomes and assessment criteria; and has been benchmarked against the national framework to reach awarding organisation standards.

Customised Awards

So you can clearly see the differences between regulated awards and endorsed awards we have highlighted the differences in the table below as follows:
