CCEA Regulation notes the further communication from the Department of the Economy Minister on 8th January 2021 on Vocational Qualifications.

Please read the full statement - Minister Diane Dodds urges vocational learners to stay focused on the future.

Please note the following statement from this communication:

"I am directly appealing to learners to continue to stay focused and to remain engaged with your individual courses of study, irrespective of whether you will be sitting an exam or not, and to follow the guidance from your teacher or tutor. The further education sector is the largest provider of vocational qualifications in Northern Ireland and I would reiterate this message to learners studying at the six further education colleges, taking either full-time or part-time courses."

CCEA Regulation will continue to work with the Department of the Economy and all Awarding Organisations on this matter.
