Established in 2006, QA Associates are experts in assessment, verification and accreditation. For over 15 years we have helped hundreds of schools, academies and commercial organisations to achieve their learning and development goals. Working in partnership with specialist training providers and awarding bodies, we support organisations in the delivery, assessment and quality assurance of their staff development programmes and qualifications. We ensure that the knowledge, skills and understanding that underpin a particular curriculum or employment/industry need are recognised. Originally set up to act as an NVQ centre for the Fire & Rescue Service, QA Associates now operates across many diverse sectors including Aviation, Financial Services, Children & Young Persons and Health & Social Care. We are now the largest assessment centre in the UK delivering BTECs in Investigative Practice, and count the UK Government and some of the country’s leading blue chip companies amongst our clients.
