Enhance your workforce with GQA
Strengthen Your Workforce. Simplify Compliance. Build Skills That Last
GQA helps employers develop competent, confident, and compliant teams through nationally recognised qualifications, streamlined CSCS carding, and practical assessment of real workplace skills. Employers can access Bespoke Qualifications and Accredited Training, both formally assessed and providing evidence of competence, as well as Endorsed Programmes, which recognise existing training without assessment to strengthen consistency, productivity, and compliance. For apprenticeships, GQA delivers End-Point Assessment (EPA) as an independent service, working with employers and centres to assess apprentices’ knowledge, skills, and behaviours at the end of their programme.
Through our network of Approved Centres — and our unique One Stop Shop for qualification, testing, carding, and EPA — you gain a streamlined solution that reduces administration and ensures consistent quality. Whether you want to upskill your people, enhance your existing training with GQA recognition, or strengthen compliance processes, GQA provides the tools, flexibility, and expert support to help your business perform at its best.
