Independent Committee Members for Northern Ireland

Tuesday, 18 October 2011 11:46

We are seeking to appoint new members to our Regulation of Vocational Qualifications in Northern Ireland Committee.

To ensure we give proper consideration to the needs of Northern Ireland learners, employers and others with an interest in vocational qualifications, we have created a Regulation of Vocational Qualifications in Northern Ireland Committee. There are currently six independent members from a diverse range of backgrounds on the Committee and we are now seeking to appoint two further members.

We are particularly interested in attracting new members with a background in Higher Education or experience as an employer or employer's representative.

This is an exciting opportunity for individuals wishing to help inform the regulatory system for vocational qualifications in Northern Ireland. As an independent member of the Committee you will play a key role in providing Ofqual with views and perspectives that reflect the interests of our key stakeholders in Northern Ireland.
