What is the Unit Award Scheme (UAS)?
UAS allows all students to engage with learning and have their achievements formally recognised.
Students are rewarded with a certificate each time they complete a unit of learning. They can build up a portfolio of certificates to evidence their skills, knowledge, and experience.
The scheme boosts confidence, increases engagement, and improves motivation, helping students to make progress on their lifelong learning journey.
Certification
A Unit Award Scheme certificate is issued each time a student completes a unit. It lists all the unit outcomes, providing a record of the knowledge, skills, and experiences achieved.
“The AQA Unit Award Scheme is a unique way of recording achievement rather than a qualification; it offers learners the opportunity to have their achievements formally recognised.”
