Support for a new National Vocational Certification Body

Saudi Skills Standards (SSS) was the newly established primary regulatory & awarding body overseeing technical & vocational education & training (TVET) in Saudi Arabia. SSS needed help in rapidly developing capacity & capability to operate a national TVET certification body.

AlphaPlus has supported SSS over 5 years:
• Developing over 50 NOSS
• Designing 100 Associate Diploma & Diploma level qualifications
• Producing Assessment resources (tests & skills assessments)
• Providing support, training & capacity development to SSS staff
• Establishing a governance framework for quality assurance in certification, assessment frameworks, credit frameworks & short course programmes.

We continue to work with partners in Saudi Arabia to grow the use of external certification & quality assurance to TVET in Saudi Arabia.
