QCF Vocational Training

The Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF) is a flexible way to gain qualifications by completing learning in small chunks called units. Units combine to form larger qualifications such as certificates and diplomas and can be transferred between related qualifications.  

Though Opps can deliver any combination of units from the QCF courses we offer, we typically provide the competency based qualifications (sometimes called NVQs), as these are available to employers at no or at little cost to themselves through government funding schemes. More importantly they are a great form of training for staff.

The QCF competency qualifications formally recognise the skills and experience of employees whilst developing new work place skills and enhancing existing ones.

Participants gain confidence by receiving a qualification for the skills and experience they have gained over the years. Motivation is increased through the opportunity to reflect on their role and the work they do. Essential work skills are reviewed and developed where necessary to bring them up to a consistently high standard and new practices are taught, ensuring your staff work in the most effective way possible.
