Have your say about the future of Functional Skills Qualification

June 17, 2009 03:46 by ian
The DCSF have put out a call for everyone with an interest in Functional Skills to take part in a consultation which will help inform awarding bodies when they develop the functional skills qualifications being introduced as part of national roll out in September 2010.

The following is copied from the DCSF Website - All the latest updates on the consultation will be posted on the functional skills section of the QCA website

Functional skills consultation

Between June to August this year, QCA will be consulting on the key regulatory criteria documents which will form the basis of the next generation of functional skills qualifications.

The consultation on the regulatory criteria is a key stage in the development and introduction of functional skills. The results of this consultation, together with the lessons learnt from the functional skills pilot, will go on to form the new regulations. These regulations will in turn be used by the awarding organisations, when they develop the functional skills qualifications being introduced as part of national roll out in September 2010.

QCA want to hear from everyone with an interest in functional skills, from employers to schools and FE colleges and from sector skills councils to universities.
