We work with industry post-validation to further recognise our qualifications as high quality and career-focused; whether that be in the form of upskilling their own workforce with our qualifications or simply formally accepting the qualification as a part of the application process.

We are proud to have developed our Pearson BTEC Higher National in Early Childhood Education and Care with experts from organisations, including: London Early Years Foundation, Early Education, East Sussex County Council Early Years Improvement Team, Morningside Children's Centre and The Early Childhood Studies Degrees Network. The representatives are able to help design our qualifications to equip learners with skills required by industry across the world.

London Early Years Foundation (LEYF) supported the qualification’s registration to Ofqual.
