RARPA Training

A series of four online, interactive training modules for post-16 education providers working with learners with SEND who currently use or are thinking of introducing the RARPA process.

RARPA is a means of measuring learner progress and demonstrating outcomes, most commonly used in association with non-accredited learning. It stands for ‘Recognising and recording progress and achievement’.

The modules are stand-alone courses on their own but together provide a comprehensive package that will cover everything you need to know about RARPA to make it successful for your organisation.

Organisations can select any number of modules to suit their requirements. Each module course has a specific focus and may be relevant to different staff in your organisation.

Please note for each course date we are limiting bookings to 4 per organisation as a maximum. However, the modules are also available to be delivered as in-house training. For further information on in-house training please complete our expression of interest form.

For any other information on this training, please contact transform@natspec.org.uk

The training will be delivered by specialist trainers with extensive knowledge and experience of the RARPA process and provision for learners with SEND.
