The British Association of Construction Heads (@BACHFEConstruct) has submitted its response to the Government’s consultation on future of level 2 and below qualifications and programmes; setting out its significant concerns over the future of proper training for the construction sector if the Government decides to cut funding.

Friday the 13th of March 2020, a date I think that will stick in my memory. I, as so many colleagues from the sector, attended the ESFA’s annual EPAO conference in London. Coronavirus was starting to come over the horizon, we discussed the problem and issues the virus could cause and tossed around a few potential solutions at the lunch. That afternoon, I instructed all of NOCN’s EPA team to take their IT equipment home, to test the contingency and operate the EPAO on a 100% working from home basis.

NOCN (@NOCNGroup) is pleased to have entered into an agreement with Italian organisations HL25 srl and AELS Ltd to offer NOCN ESOL International examinations to a large number of state and private schools and universities.

@NOCNGroup, the leading educational charity have appointed Stuart Galloway (@notsobigStu) as Product Manager for the Security sector.

@NOCNGroup will host a webinar on Tuesday 3rd November at 11:30am, as part of the organisations support of Lifelong Learning Week (2nd-6th November 2020). The webinar from NOCN Groups’ Managing Director Graham Hasting-Evans (@BACH_President) will focus on the importance of upskilling the nation’s work forces through adult education in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic and the Government’s recent Lifetime Skills Guarantee announcement.
