How are we doing?

The Midlands Consortium has achieved the Skills for Justice 'Skillsmark'.

The 'Skillsmark' is the quality mark for learning and development in the Justice sector. It is awarded to learning providers who have gone through a rigorous assessment process and have been recognised as providing high quality learning programmes, relevant to the needs of the Justice sector.

More information on the Skillsmark.

  • We continue to receive excellent reports from City & Guilds and OCR, our awarding bodies, on the quality of the Centre's NVQ work.

  • We currently have 338 members of probation staff working towards achieving NVQs and other vocational awards across a wide range of areas.

    For more about NVQ's visit the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority website.

The Midlands Consortium has both national and regional responsibilities in relation to the training and development needs of staff. We run tutor and facilitator training for staff in Interventions, offender management training, the core PSO development programme, unpaid work training, CJA training and other relevant training and development as required.
