This consultation which ran from July to October 2014 is about how an awarding organisation should:

  • decide whether a qualification is, or is likely to be, used by persons in work in England aged 16 or 17 to help them meet their legal duties to participate in relevant education or training
  • calculate and describe the time students will typically need to spend undertaking certain activities when studying for a qualification.
