Getting Approved

There are two different routes to approval, depending on the scheme you want to deliver. Our routes are designed to help you meet the criteria as an Approved Trainer or Approval Provider in which you can then deliver a scheme or endorsement.

For EUSR Schemes

You need to become an Approved Trainer to deliver these schemes as approval is at an individual, rather than organisation level. 

You will need to evidence you meet our approval criteria:

  • A current EUSR registration for the scheme you wish to deliver
  • Knowledge and understanding of current working practices within the relevant industry
  • Relevant career history – a minimum of two years’ work experience in the relevant industry
  • Two professional references
  • Training qualifications (or working towards)
  • Experience in training and/or assessment 

Getting Approved

Stage 1

  • Complete and submit your application form with all required evidence. Please email eusr@euskills.co.uk to make a request for an application form from the EUSR team
  • We do a desktop review of your application and contact you if we have any questions or need additional evidence 

Stage 2

  • If you get through Stage 1, we will invite you to attend a Trainer Approval Workshop 
  • Upon successful completion of the Trainer Approval Workshop you:
    • Sign our Terms and Conditions
    • We register you as an Approved Trainer for the relevant scheme on EUSR
    • We provide you with log in details and guidance on our online registration system QuartzWeb – within which you will be able to access all training and assessment materials 
    • We will add you to our list of Approved Trainers on our website – if this is appropriate for you

Stage 3

You’re approved and you start delivering training.

Ongoing Quality Assurance

  • We monitor training, assessment and administration activity on an on-going basis
  • You will have an audit at least once a year – which could be an Administration Audit, Desktop Audit or Visit Audit
