VTCT (Vocational Training Charitable Trust) is the specialist awarding organisation for the
‘service sector’. It has awarded world class qualifications since 1962 and has been at the
forefront of developing the vocational qualifications in the United Kingdom ever since. VTCT
offers suites of qualifications in:
• Hairdressing and Beauty therapy
• Complementary Therapies
• Sports and Active Leisure
• Hospitality and Catering
• Business, Retail and Customer service
• Transferable and Functional Skills.
VTCT and its qualifications are regulated by Ofqual, SQA and the Welsh Government and
awarded across the UK and internationally by more than 800 approved training centres and
colleges. VTCT takes a specialist approach; providing a comprehensive range of qualifications in
each of its suites, first class customer service, specialist training and support. Investment in ICT
has facilitated electronic registration and certification claims (with next day processing), online
and onscreen exams and an e portfolio, within the price of the qualification.
VTCT has for many years provided a suite of qualifications in the Sports and Active Leisure
Area in particular in health and fitness and sports massage, including complete apprenticeship
packages for the sector. As in other areas of its portfolio VTCT takes a specialist approach and
supports the sector more widely, for example VTCT are sponsors of the men’s and women’s
football leagues through British Colleges Sport and now, of course, we are delighted to sponsor
the AoC Beacon Award for Sport in the Curriculum.
In September 2014 VTCT will be launching a new suite of Sports Studies qualifications
specifically designed for Colleges. These qualifications are designed to attract UCAS points and
will prepare learners for higher education as well as employment. VTCT also provides a range
of awards to sit alongside these qualifications within Programmes of Study.
