Ofqual has worked with awarding organisations to compile the following information on key dates and deadlines for vocational and technical qualifications (VTQ) in 2024.
This VTQ Information Hub is most relevant to school and college staff working in the administration or delivery of Level 3, Level 1/2 and Level 2 vocational and technical qualifications used for progression. It will help you prepare for the awarding organisation key dates and deadlines ahead of awarding in summer 2024.
Information is arranged by awarding organisation and then by qualification. You can download the combined data for all awarding organisations, or for each individual organisation.
We are interested in your feedback about the VTQ Information Hub. If you have any comments about the usefulness of the hub or if there is information that you would like to see included please email this address: VTQInformationHub@ofqual.gov.uk
The VTQ Information Hub has been updated on 26 April 2024 to reflect changes made from awarding organisations regarding key dates.
