   Please note: We encourage users to minimise the amount of data provided in this section of the page. This is a search tool that will assist in locating registrations. The easiest way to locate your learner is with their unique registration number. If you need to find a candidate by name, we recommend using only 1 of the name fields. You can also use % as a wildcard to maximise your results.
