We continue to review the way we work with our centres to ensure our qualifications and the service we provide are the best they can be. From 1st of August, there will be two significant changes in the way we charge for our centre approval fees for qualifications.
Firstly, we will no longer set centre approval fees for individual units (for example for only 101). We now offer a single fee for the full qualification (for example Level 1 Award in BSL). Please note! candidate assessment fees will not change and will still be charged per unit.
Secondly, we will give discounts to centres that offer more than one qualification. If you are being approved for two qualifications at the same time, a 5% discount will be applied to the total fee. And, for approval of three or more qualifications at the same time, a 7% discount will be applied.
As a Signature centre, we ask that you take the time to consider what qualifications you are likely to offer when you renew. We will work with each of you to ensure we can offer you the right discount at the right time. This new fees structure not only offers you lower prices, but a more efficient centre approval process.
