• UK Quality Mark

    Want to gain accreditation for your own unique learning programmes?

  • Quality Mark

    eGraduate College has partnered with Open College Network South East England to launch a new service to enable training providers to gain accreditation in order to evidence the quality of their learning programmes.

    Stand out with a Quality Mark from a renowned organisation in the UK

    Open College Network South East England is a registered charity and a nationally recognised awarding organisation. It is proud of its history of supporting education and training providers for over 30 years and is approved by The Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulations (Ofqual), Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA) and Security Industry Authority (SIA).

     

    Accreditation from Open College Network South East indicates the quality of your programmes and is a great way to stand out from your competitors. You'll be able to use the Quality Mark logo to help advertise your programmes and raise your profile.

    Retain full ownership of your programmes

    With Quality Mark, your programmes still belong to you. As the specialists who have developed the programme, you retain full ownership, that means no other organisation can access your unique provision.

     

    Quality Mark therefore provides the best of both worlds - you get accreditation from a trusted organisation but your programmes remain your own. This will be showcased on dual-branded certificates for your learners.

    Quality Assurance

    If you are already delivering courses in-house, then Quality Mark is a great way to enhance them further. With our external quality assurance, you can take your programmes to the next level.

     

    As part of the accreditation process, the content and quality of each programme will be audited by the External Verifier from Open College Network South East England. The learning outcomes and assessment criteria will be evaluated to make sure they match the scheme of work. We will also identify the policies you need to deliver, assess and verify your programmes smoothly.

  • Quality Mark Tiers

     The Quality Mark is a recognition of a quality training programme/course which meets certain requirements. There are three tiers available depending on the course.
