Transferring DCS from another Awarding Organisation

If you’ve achieved DCS with another Awarding Organisation (AO) for a qualification that’s also offered by us, we may be able to honour this.

Please note that your request must be completed before your first external quality assurance review with NCFE, which includes the qualification being transferred, requests submitted after an NCFE review cannot be considered.

If approved, DCS will be applied for a period of three months from the date of your request, after which an external quality assurance review will be required to maintain DCS beyond this timeframe.
