Approvals and Accreditation
Skillset and the creative media industries work together to identify those media training providers whose courses provide the best professional development to the existing workforce and new entrants.
- Skillset Approval is awarded to those institutions and organisations that achieve an exceptionally high standard set out and evaluated by industry with Higher and Further Education.
- Skillset Accreditation provides the same recognition to individual courses.
- In addition to our own internal accrediting and approvals processes Skillset recognises the work of four other accrediting organisations that operate within the creative media sectors.
