The NCP for England provides information and guidance, via its website, email and telephone to parties involved in the implementation of ECVET in England.

We offer expertise to help awarding bodies understand how the ECVET can work with existing vocational qualifications, or how the ECVET process can be considered in the design of new awards.

We also provide information to students in vocational education and training (VET) on how ECVET can help to validate learning and facilitate mobility.

The NCP for England is part of a wider network of contact points in the UK, the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA).
