Vocational Qualifications Registration

Registrations for vocational qualifications that follow the academic year should be made by 1 November 2026. Registrations made after this date will be subject to late fees.

Learners must be registered for BTEC qualifications before external assessment entries can be submitted. Registered learners are not automatically entered for external assessments, so you will need to make unit entries for the appropriate examination series.
