NOCN Qualifications


On this page:

NOCN is an awarding body approved by the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority to offer Qualifications within the National Qualifications Framework.

Learners may accumulate credits towards an entire qualification in the usual way. However in order to gain the overall Qualification all learners will usually have to undertake an additional assignment task which will be externally set and marked by NOCN. Centres may wish to offer part of or all of an NOCN Qualification. For Entry Level Qualifications the external assessments are marked by the Centre and externally moderated by the OCN.

NOCN is offering a range of these Qualifications in line with its mission and aims. Further details are available at the NOCN web site, including online unit descriptions.

OCNKM has taken the lead for the development of the NOCN Information Advice & Guidance Qualifications. Further details will be posted as they become available.

You can go straight to the NOCN web site for a summary of the current NOCN Qualifications. Look at NOCN Qualifications section
