Venue and other information

Certificates

All participants will be given a Certificate of Attendance after each course.

NVQ Competence

All courses run by OCTS will assist participants in the process of gaining knowledge to demonstrate competencies for a range of NVQ units. It is important to remember that attendance at courses in itself does not meet the requirements for achieving an NVQ. It is the ability to demonstrate that skills and knowledge acquired through attendance at a course has subsequently been shown to have been put into practise in the work setting.

For participants working towards an NVQ, it is worth checking the programme content in advance of attending an OCTS course to be clear as to which NVQ unit the course will contribute relevant knowledge.

Future Courses

If you have found any course/s particularly helpful (or otherwise!) or have ideas for other areas that it might be useful to cover, please let us have your comments. It would be useful to have these as soon as possible, so they can be taken into account when planning the next programme.

Equal Opportunities Statement

All OCTS training is undertaken with a view to positively promoting Equal Opportunities.

It is expected that course tutors and participants will give attention to Equal Opportunities issues and will refrain from using racist and/or sexist language and behaviour.

Following attendance at any OCTS course, participants will have the opportunity to comment (as part of the evaluation process) about Equal Opportunities and Anti-Discriminatory issues.

The Cherwell Centre has wheelchair access. If you have any special needs that you feel OCTS should be aware of, please contact Gina Ball as soon as possible.
