Training providers who have had their courses and/or qualifications quality assured through the Quality Assured Care Learning Service (QACLS), including the Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism (Oliver’s Training), are subject to regular verification reviews to ensure they continue to meet agreed quality standards and service requirements.
All training providers who’ve been successful in their application(s) to have their courses and/or qualifications quality assured are subject to regular verification reviews. The purpose of verification is to ensure that training providers:
- continue to meet or exceed the quality standards and/or the Quality Framework for Oliver’s Training in their everyday practice
- are acting in accordance with the agreements they have made as part of the service e.g. Code of Conduct, Sub-Licence Agreement.
An initial review of parts one and two of the application process will be undertaken approximately six to nine months after your successful application and will focus on a sample of quality standards. Following the initial review, you’ll be advised when you can expect your next verification review.
The second review of parts one and two will occur within one to two years of the first and will include all quality standards. The timeline will be dependent on the outcome of the initial review, after which you’ll be advised when to expect your next review. The review cycle will continue in this manner for as long as you retain your quality assured status.
