one they are claimed by the provider anything up to 6 weeks

 

[REDSAW]

how about 4 months!!!!!!!!

 

[adrianfs1]

well their 4 months are up, do i need this cert to enroll on another course,

 

[REDSAW]

no, pester the college about your cert's, they proberbly have them laying around somewhere in the office and are not in any hurry to send them. i remember back when i was chacing mine after 4 months, they sent them by the next week.
you dont need any rally, just refer the college phone number and they will verify your grades to employer etc.

I know they are all full of rubbish i was enquiring last year about doing my acs,
i was told all be it i am self employed that there was no reason what so ever why i could not take my NVQ 3 and then the acs assessment, so i made some enquiries and spoke to my old tutor at same particular centre, he then told me, its true but,,,,,, you have to build a portfolio of evidence before taking acs and because i am self employed and not a chance of working with a qualified engineer he would refuse me himself, his advice was very much appreciated and saved me from signing on to something i could not complete, these centres are just after one thing, and its not what us men always think of. (according to my wife, my girlfriend and her sister)Cheers.

i appologise if i offended anyone with my last post by using the word begining in B and ending in T, this word was used as an expression, however it does now make me wander if the censor placed on this is for Others benefit, after all bull is not swearing and as for the second half of the word 2 of the 4 letters were not printed, i know the rules of the forum but have seen worse on here, once again sorry. i think????????

most quals go direct to the candidate as it is their property, most hold ups are by the awarding body, particulalry this time of year processing them all. colleges get blamed for pretty much everything but all they can do is complete paperwork to say youve passed and send it on

I am the same as you self employed no idea how the hell i am going to do my acs but I will get there by hook or by crook. Or maybe i'll just go for oil lol loads of oil boilers round these parts.
