MEMBER and APPROVED CENTRES

OCNW is governed by, and accountable to, its member organisations. Lancaster University, the University of Liverpool, the University of Central Lancashire, Northumbria University, Edge Hill and University of Cumbria are OCNW’s HE member institutions.  They supply both educational expertise and academic validation.  There are over fifty member institutions in the Further and Adult Education and Sixth Form College sector, which develop and teach the programmes.  There is no charge for membership but members are expected to demonstrate loyalty to OCNW when selecting awarding bodies to meet their qualification requirements.

 Of course a large number of centres wish to offer OCNW qualifications but do not wish to seek full membership status. In this case the centres can be awarded “approved centre” status.
