About us
Who we are
OCN London is a not-for-profit national awarding organisation authorised by Ofqual to
develop and deliver nationally recognised qualifications across England. OCN London is
also a national Access Validation Agency, licensed by the Quality Assurance Agency for
Higher Education (QAA) to develop and deliver Access to HE Diplomas. We were
established as a limited company and a registered charity in 1993.
Our funding is generated mainly through charges for qualification registrations and
centre membership. In addition, OCN London joins in partnerships to participate in
externally funded projects which meet its strategic aims.
We have a diverse clientele and our qualifications and courses are delivered by FE
colleges, adult education institutions, private training providers, employers, voluntary
and community sector organisations, prisons and schools.
