Type of organisation: Charity/Community

Aims: We are the only organisation whose sole aim is to develop courses and qualifications for people who work, or want to work, in child care. But what makes us stand out is our awareness of the bigger picture: the children, their carers, the sector as a whole.

The care that children receive in their early years makes a huge impact on their development. We play a vital part in this; through creating widely recognised, professional qualifications and the keeping the quality of these qualifications consistently high.
