The iCQ Level 3 Award in Education and Training is accredited by iCQ Awards, which is regulated by Ofqual. This ensures the qualification meets national standards and is widely recognised. It is also listed on the Ofqual Register of Regulated Qualifications under QAN: 601/6202/8.

iCQ Awards is an Ofqual-approved awarding body (Reference Number RN5325). Inspire London College offers this course through iCQ Awards, giving learners a trusted and recognised certification. The qualification supports career growth in education and training. It also provides a strong foundation for further study and professional development.

All units within the iCQ Level 3 Award in Education and Training are internally assessed by Inspire London College and externally verified by iCQ Awards to ensure quality and consistency. Assessment is assignment-based. Learners must complete one assignment for each unit, and they receive a full structure, clear guidance, and ongoing tutor support. All assignments and support are included in the course fee.

This qualification also includes a microteaching requirement, which involves at least one hour of practical teaching. Each learner must deliver a minimum of one 15-minute microteaching session. The remaining 45 minutes can be completed by delivering additional microteaching sessions or observing other trainee teachers. There is no final exam for this course. Learners complete the qualification by submitting the required assignments and completing the microteaching component.

Upon successfully passing the qualification, the learner will receive a certificate (soft copy/scanned version) issued by iCQ Awards, which is included in the course price. If you require a hard copy certificate, an additional fee of £25 will apply. This covers standard postal charges.

For faster delivery, you may choose to have your certificate and transcript sent via special courier (e.g., DHL). This service incurs an additional cost of £40, which applies primarily to international deliveries.

Note: It is not mandatory to select the courier service for delivery. We provide this special courier option for your convenience because standard posts take longer (3-4 weeks). You may contact certificate@inspirelondoncollege.co.uk if you require any assistance.
