Qualification dates
Regulated qualifications have review dates, operational end dates and certification end dates.
The qualification review date is the date by which we’ll have carried out a review of the qualification. This date is shown on the qualification page on our website www.ncfe.org.uk.
We review qualifications up to 18 months before their review date, working with sector representatives to make any changes necessary to meet sector needs and to reflect recent developments. In most cases we’ll then extend the qualification, and set a new review date. If we make the decision to withdraw a qualification, we’ll set an operational end date (see below).
We’ll post information relating to changes or extensions to qualifications on our website www.ncfe.org.uk, and centres approved to offer the qualification will be kept updated.
The operational end date will only show on the Register if we’ve made the decision to withdraw a qualification. After this date we can no longer accept candidate registrations.
The certification end date will only show on the Register once an operational end date has been set. After this date we can no longer process certification claims.
