Ofqual-regulated vs non-Ofqual qualifications explained
· 6 min read
Not every UK qualification sits on the Ofqual register. What's the difference and what does it mean for you?
What Ofqual regulates
Ofqual regulates qualifications in England that are placed on its register. Many respected qualifications are offered outside that register.
Quality outside the register
Awarding bodies outside Ofqual regulation rely on their own quality assurance frameworks, external verification and third-party recognition.
