OCR Nationals are celebrating twin milestones with the fantastic news that 100,000 'satisfied customers' have now been certificated and over half a million candidates have been registered.
A delighted Stephen Bishop, Product Manager for OCR Nationals, said: "This news is a tremendous testament to the success of the OCR Nationals programme. Not bad for a qualification that has been around for less than 10 years."
Recent OCR Nationals success stories have included the launch of two online viral games – Reach for the Sky and Apartment 13. The former was part of a campaign promoting OCR Nationals, and the latter reinforced the continuing success of its suite of Science qualifications with a particular focus on Forensic Science.
Offered at Levels 1 to 3, OCR Nationals cover a wide range of industries and sectors: Business, Travel and Tourism, Information Technology, Health and Social Care, Sport, Public Services, Design, Science and Media. Students are motivated through the use of a 'real work' style in addition to having optional units available to study. This approach will help them to develop workplace skills.
