Resorts icon Resorts - Standards and Qualifications

This is a more recent addition to our service portfolio, but we have made something of a splash having just completed one of the most extensive, complex and successful reviews of standards and qualifications in the marketplace.

 

We work with technical specialists and standards writers to augment our research services that can help review the extent to which national occupational standards in any given industry are reflective of current practice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Skyblue undertook a review of the Learning and Development Standards for LLUK during 2008-2010 engaging over 1,000 consultees through surveys and over 40 events across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The Standards were approved by the UK Commission for Employment and Skills earlier this year

 

 

What's hot?
An 18 month UK wide review of the Learning and Development Standards engaging over 1,000 professionals in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland; and the first ever Sector Skills Council project to measure the impact of standards and qualifications in the UK – a platform for driving forward learning in this new area of impact measurement.
What do our clients tell us they want?

A service that combines first class research know how (to engage with employees in different sectors and walks of life) with technical specialists who have the ability to write standards and qualifications that will achieve approval and meet with wider industry satisfaction.

 
What can we do to help?
  • Provide a full research, standards and qualifications writing service for existing or brand new NOS across most sectors
  • Technical capability in respect of writing units of assessment
  • Bespoke research expertise to measure the impact of any Sector Skills Council’s impact in respect of standards and qualifications activity aligned to top line organisational measures of performance
  • Consultations or guidance for clients to be able to self facilitate standards and qualifications reviews anywhere in the UK
 
Who can you ask about our work?

As some of our work in standards and qualifications is still seen as leading edge and therefore commercially sensitive we limit information about our work in this area to clients who have a genuine research and review project need.
