amanda asked:

is there an age limit?

Hi Amanda There is no maximum age limit to enrol in our Passport to Holiday Rep Course. Tour Operators expect applicants to have the stamina to work long and varied hours with a smile. If you feel you can do that, we would love you to enrol in our course. Kind regards Sarah Nugent International Academy of Travel

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.
