Setting the Standard

We work closely with Expert Working Groups (EWG) comprised of sector specialists to develop National Occupational Standard (NOS) that are then used as the basis of qualifications.

Recent developments include the Advanced Aesthetic Standards - see section below for link - LIVE now!

What are National Occupational Standards (NOS) ?

NOS specify UK Standards of performance that people are expected to achieve in their work, and the knowledge and skills they need to perform effectively.

NOS are developed by Standard Setting organisations who consult with employers and stakeholders across each of the UK nations, the result is a set of NOS that are suitable for use across the UK. The NOS are approved on a four-nation basis. They are developed as individual measures of competence but they are grouped in Suites.
