Coming Soon
We are the only awarding body with an extensive portfolio of coaching qualifications, many of which are part of a UK Coaching Certificate (UKCC) endorsed coach education programme. These Vocationally Related Qualifications (VRQs) are currently exclusive to the National Qualifications Framework (NQF); such qualifications will be replaced by an appropriate Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF) offering in 2010 with a view to them being accepted as part of the ASL Catalogue. Below are a number of other qualifications that are currently in development with a view to also being accepted as part of the ASL Catalogue.
How You Can Offer These Qualifications?
These qualifications are presently in development or in the process of gaining approval for the ASL Catalogue. Therefore, they cannot be delivered as part of the Diploma yet. However, if you would like to be notified of when the qualifications you are interested in become available, please submit your details and we will contact you as and when the qualifications are available to be delivered.
