Fire Industry Association AO surrenders Ofqual recognition

Fire Industry Association Awarding Organisation informed Ofqual on 23 October 2020 of its intention to surrender recognition for commercial reasons and, as a result, stop operating as an awarding organisation.

The surrender took effect as of 1 April 2022. From this date, no qualifications offered by Fire Industry Association Awarding Organisation are regulated by Ofqual.

Fire Industry Association Awarding Organisation previously had 6 regulated qualifications and issued 1044 certificates in the last full academic year. We understand no learners are negatively impacted by this surrender.

When awarding organisations are considering surrendering their recognition, we stand ready to discuss the options for proceeding while ensuring learners are protected.

A full list of currently recognised awarding organisations and regulated qualifications can be found on the Register of Regulated Qualifications.
