Summerhouse is funded by the Government for the following:
- To enrol learners aged 16+ years on NVQ Apprenticeships. There is no upper age limit for Apprentices.
To register the learners with City and Guilds for NVQ and Key Skills programmes.
To oversee their training & provide additional training as necessary
To deal with the audits & Ofsted Inspectorate.

Each learner has an NVQ work based Diploma Level 2 or 3 portfolio to include Key Skills, provided by Summerhouse.
These portfolios are updated to show the learners work based training.
When a learner is fully competent an NVQ assessor will sign off their portfolio.

Many people are still wary of NVQ Diplomas as they are a new style work based qualification
People do not realise that they can continue to train for their BHS or ABRS exams as the
syllabuses are almost identical to NVQ Diplomas.
The main difference is that the government currently
only fund NVQ Diplomas.
|
|
Whether you wish to train for BHS, ABRS or NVQ exams, NVQs Apprenticeships are the answer
|
NVQ Diplomas are ideal for people who suffer from exam nerves, because you do not have to take a final exam, (with the exception of a paper based Technical Certificate, to be completed at the work place). An NVQ qualification is gained through continual work based assessment.
All NVQ Diplomas can be used to gain direct entry to BHS exams.
ie NVQ Level 2 in Horse Care (Riding) - direct entry to BHS Stage 2 or BHS Stage 3
ie NVQ Level 3 in Horse Care & Management (Riding) - direct entry to BHS Stage 2, 3 or 4.
