Awards and Accreditation
Many adults in community learning like the chance to get an award or qualification. Adult learning is made to fit what learners need. Getting a qualification is just one way to learn. If learners are interested, providers can help them show what they have learned and get their award.
Glasgow’s Learning partners help adult learners access a range of community-based programmes. These include vocational, accredited, credit-rated, and certificated learning. Examples are the Community Achievement Award, Adult Achievement Awards, SQA, and other qualifications.
For example, ESOL learners can gain SQA qualifications at different levels.
The
Scottish Qualifications Authority
(SQA) is Scotland’s national accreditation and awarding body. Its main purpose is to work with learning providers like us. It aims to offer high-quality, flexible, and relevant qualifications that are inclusive and accessible to all.
