Join our Employer Panel advisory boards to guide the development of technical qualifications.

Help provide ongoing feedback, review course content and ensure that the qualification remains relevant. 

1. Participation in Qualification Design:
   • Contribute to the design of qualifications by providing us with insights into the skills, knowledge, and competencies required for specific job roles.
   • Offer input on the latest industry trends, technological advancements, and evolving work practices.
2. Validation of Learning Outcomes:
   • You can validate the learning outcomes of technical qualifications to ensure that learners possess the skills and competencies needed in the job market.
   • You can collaborate with us to design assessments and projects that reflect real workplace challenges.
3. Feedback Loop:
   • You can offer feedback on the performance of current and certified learners in the workplace, to help refine curricula and teaching methods and ensure they meet industry needs.

By actively participating in these ways, you can help us to ensure that technical qualifications are current, relevant, and produce job-ready graduates.

VTCT have two panel opportunities linked to each qualification development. Content panels are designed to ensure that the knowledge, skills and behaviours included in our qualifications are underpinned by up-to-date practices, ensuring learners enjoy a challenging and quality educational experience.

Assessment panels are designed to allow employers to inform the assessment practices, ensuring that the way learners are tested is linked to industry practices, providing valid, reliable, and real-world scenarios ensuring learners are fit for work upon completion of their qualification.

However much time you can offer, we value your input enormously. Please get in touch to let us know if you can support the development of these qualifications in any way.
