NCFE Apprenticeships

What next and getting started with NCFE Working with NCFE and the Sector Skills Councils Firstly you need to identify the Apprenticeship programme you’d like to offer, then contact the relevant Sector Skills Council to register your learners onto the Apprenticeship. Secondly, contact NCFE and register your learners with us. Once each qualification is complete, contact NCFE and register your learners to claim the qualification certificate. The certificate for the Apprenticeship is then claimed from the Sector Skills Council by you. Don’t forget to check all qualification entry requirements before registering candidates.

Getting started with NCFE couldn’t be easier.

Already run NCFE qualifications? • Complete the ‘application to offer additional products’ form and send it to your Centre Support Contact. You’ll then be automatically approved to start running the qualifications you’ve requested. It’s as easy as that.

Not already approved by NCFE? Not a problem! • Complete the ‘application to become an approved centre’ form. • If you’re currently approved by another recognised Awarding Organisation we probably won’t even need to carry out an approval visit. • Visit our website to see more information on our approval fees and how to get started or give us a call and we’ll advise you. You can access both application forms at www.ncfe.org.uk.

NCFE Portal Don’t forget, that once you’re up and running, the NCFE Portal makes it easy for you to track and manage your NCFE Apprenticeship related qualifications online. The NCFE Portal provides a great way to monitor and track the progress of students against individual qualifications, meaning less paperwork and hassle for you.

Apprenticeship Funding This year, NCFE is pleased to sponsor ‘The Complete Guide to Funding Apprenticeships’. Published by Lsect, the guide includes funding examples for every Apprenticeship Framework and level in England. Visit www.fundingguide.co.uk for more information.
