Overview

Do you have great plans to improve your home and garden but don’t have the money? Would you love to tackle DIY projects but aren’t confident you’ll do it right? Maybe you’ve bought an older property which needs work to turn it into your ideal home.

DIY, or Do-It-Yourself, is a great way to maintain your house and garden and to add new features that you can enjoy for years to come. The satisfaction from building things with our own two hands makes us value them higher, according to psychologists.

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.
