Historically you would have to source a registration fee for the qualification, a credit agreement for the initial assessment and a cost for the learning resources but with FAST you pay one price per learner for all!

For the first 3 bands you will be allocated a maximum of user licences, one licence equals one learner, and can be allocated to any learner at your centre. For the final 3 bands there will be no set limit to the number of licences you can use. A licence will provide you access to One Assessment for both Functional Skills and GCSE, diagnostic assessments, quality dashboard, learning and teaching resources.
FAST will be offered through a legally binding contract committing you to a set number of registrations per 12-month period which will be monitored throughout the period.
