The AQA Unit Award Scheme (UAS) is a ‘can do’ accreditation scheme for recognising learning and success. It rewards participants for personal progress and achievements which are often not recognised by more formal qualifications. Used with students of all ages and abilities, the Scheme covers virtually all subject areas and activities from Pre-entry to Level 3.

As an on-demand scheme, students complete units and receive certificates throughout the year.

Costs for the UAS per student are:

• £21.00 registration runs from (Sep to Aug) not per unit.
• £20.00 per unit including assessment and certificate.

If there is not a suitable unit that would cover the work with your students, our staff can create a bespoke accreditation package to suit your organisation. Please contact us for more information.

We have found that many young people after achieving their first certificate want to progress onto more. The other benefactor is that there are over 23,000 units accredited within this program; from entry level one right through to level three. Our experience in working with young people around the work that they are doing and accrediting it, doesn’t turn them off to accreditation as they are participating in the project anyway. For example if a group is planning a trip, this can be accredited as an entry level or level one unit. These can become more progressive dependant on what you would like your student to achieve.
