An influx of satellite centres have been found to be promoting Focus Awards qualifications, as much as we appreciate the advertisement it is important to remember that these types of centres must have been approved by Focus Awards for permission to advertise as well as deliver qualifications. In some cases, we have noticed that not all of the centres advertising have been authorised to do so, which can be misleading to learners, as we cannot confirm authenticity of the centre being approved.
We kindly request that if centres do find that they have satellite centres, and have not been in contact with us for a while, to ensure all sites are disclosed and approved through our approval team.
By doing so, it can avoid breach of our logo usage policy, the maladministration and malpractice policy, as well as the signed centre agreement.
Please contact olivia@focusawards.org.uk if you have any further queries regarding this.
