Qualifications and Accreditation

Hampshire Learning offers a wide range of accredited and non-accredited provision. Much of our work is delivered under NCFE’s Investing in Quality Licence. Part A of the licence is non accredited learning and part B of the licence allows us to accredit out locally developed programmes.

Locally Accredited Programmes

Hampshire Learning has a wide range of locally accredited programmes. These have been broken down into the following sections:

• Adult and Community Programmes  - includes, Steps into Employment, Personal Development, and Community Learning
• Family Programmes

You can also view a list of all our locally accredited programmes in alphabetical order. If you don’t see a programme which meets your needs we can work with you to get your courses accredited. Please see the NCFE handbook for further details

National Tests and Entry Level Portfolios

We provide opportunities for learners to gain National Tests in literacy and numeracy through NCFE accreditation.

National Tests at Level 1&2 will be withdrawn from September 2012 and replaced with Functional Skills.  We will upload more information as soon it becomes available.

NCFE Qualifications

As well as our locally accredited programmes and National Test we also have approval to offer a range of NCFE qualifications. If there is a particular programme you wish to run and it is not listed please contact us and we can look into seeking approval to run it.

City and Guilds

Hampshire Learning is also a City and Guilds Centre so if you are interested in running a City and Guilds Qualification please contact us.
