Centre Recognition Application
Once your Enquiry Form has been received we will appoint a named Business Development Officer (BDO), who will arrange a meeting with you and send you our Centre Recognition Pack which contains the application form and our Terms and Conditions.
When you meet with the BDO they will take you through the Centre Recognition process, explain our systems and procedures and our service and product charges; whilst we aim to make this process as simple as possible, we need to ensure that you have robust quality assurance arrangements in place to support your learners’ needs.
We offer free Centre Support Training to key staff within the centre to support the development of OCN assessment procedures and quality assurance systems.

After meeting with you your BDO will make an assessment of your proposed course and qualification offer, your quality assurance and administration systems. If you meet our criteria then your Centre will become a Recognised Centre for the delivery and quality assurance of OCN accredited courses and NOCN Qualifications. We’ll send you a letter confirming this and your Centre’s Recognition Certificate.
If your Centre needs to develop its systems and processes we can work with you and support you to develop these.
