Overview

The UK offers a great market potential for people who are looking to start up their own cleaning business. The cleaning industry in the United Kingdom is growing fast, and its popularity is driven by the fact that people need external help in cleaning their homes.

Due to their busy schedules, most people in the United Kingdom find it almost impossible to take out time for their homes. They are so caught up in other activities such as work, social events and catching up with their family and friends that cleaning the house (or the workplace) takes a backseat. This comprehensive course will teach you everything that you need to know to set up a successful cleaning business, wether you choose a domestic cleaning business cleaning other peoples homes or a commercial cleaning business.

The cleaning industry provides high quality cleaning services to all sectors of society. Both the public and private sectors can enjoy these facilities by contacting cleaning companies when the need arises. These cleaning companies can be contacted by potential customers through a tendering process that allows the customers to select the corporation best suiting their needs.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
