The DRF is pleased to announce that following the handover from Doran Scott Williams (DSW), we have now gained approval as a centre to deliver BTEC qualifications.

The 2 courses remain the same –
BTEC level 3 advanced award in debt resolution
BTEC level 3 advanced certificate in debt resolution

All the administration will now be internal within DRF and this will bring the following benefits to our members:

• Keeping costs as low as possible
• Keeping the ownership of the course within our control – other industries or organisations will not be able to copy it
• The administration of content updates, mock test and assessments is now all in-house; this will hopefully speed things up and offer a much needed re-fresh as soon as possible.
• We are currently undertaking the move of all learner records on the Edexcel system, so please bear with us over the next few weeks. It may be the end of September before recent learners who have passed all 3 modules will receive their certificates.

The DRF is also delighted to confirm we now have 60 learners who have completed and passed all 3 modules. These learners can now use the initials CertDR after their names.

A further 250 learners are registered and at various stages of the course.

The DRF is currently revising course content but any suggestions for improvement of content, tests or exams is always welcomed.

Please contact Gaynor Loughnane direct via email on: CertDR@debtresolutionforum.org.uk or whilst logged on the course system, press the ‘help’ button to input your suggestion.
