What we do

Set up. Automate. Maintain.

Everything a training centre needs, from the first approval application to the day-to-day running, delivered and coordinated by one team.

Centre management

Your centre, start to finish

Whether you are opening a new centre or running an established one, we handle what sits behind the teaching: approval, courses, automated admin, compliance and staff. Built around how your centre works, then kept running by us.

Common questions

Before you get in touch

Are you an awarding body?

No. Approval is granted by the awarding body, not by us. EdTech Assurance prepares centres to meet their requirements and supports them through the process; the decision is always the awarding body's.

Who actually does the work?

EdTech Assurance is practitioner-led: Neil Ware is an active IQA and EQA, not a sales office. Delivery is supported by a network of over 48 vetted assessors, IQAs and EQAs, matched to your specialism, level and awarding body.

Where in the UK do you work?

UK-wide. The associate network covers all four nations, and most support can be delivered remotely where that suits the centre.

Is IQA Manager part of your consultancy, or a separate product?

It is a separate software product, developed and operated in-house by EdTech Assurance, with its own site at iqamanager.co.uk. You can use the consultancy without the software, or the software on its own.

How quickly will I hear back?

Within one working day, usually sooner. There is no call centre and no account manager: the practitioner who does the work answers the enquiry.

Do we stay in control of our centre?

Yes. Your organisation remains the approved centre, with its own head of centre and its own accountability to the awarding body. We set up, run and support the services and systems behind it.

Starting a centre, or running one?

Tell us where you are, and we will show you what we can take off your hands.
