Additional processes some centres
have introduced
What we’re doing
•
Working with our database provider to
see whether the RAC claim form can be
made easier and simpler to use –
done =
show comparison
•
Working with centres before next year to
reduce the amount of units in courses –
some have in excess of 100
•
Considering ‘page per learner’ RAC
What to do when things go
wrong
•
What should you do?
•
(we’ll confirm whether you’re right!)
How we work with you when it
is identified
•
Don’t get upset!
•
We will either:
–
instruct the Head of Centre to conduct an
investigation
–
conduct an investigation
–
nominate a third party to carry out the
investigation
•
We may put in a sanction at this point
How we work with you when it
is identified
•
If we find malpractice we will convene a
panel
•
We may notify Ofqual (we are required to)
•
We may notify other Awarding
Organisations (we are required to)
•
Set and implement an Action Plan
•
Potentially set Sanctions
