Cambridge Advanced Nationals (AAQs) Showcase Webinars and Professional Development
The Department for Education's (DfE) recent review of post-16 qualifications reform has confirmed which qualifications will be funded for the 2025/2026 academic year and we're inviting you to join our series of policy overview and subject specific webinars to gain a comprehensive understanding of what these changes mean for you and your post-16 curriculum delivery.
Policy Overview webinars
At our policy overview webinars you'll learn about the policy review outcomes, get insight into what's funded and what's not and have an introduction to our new Alternative Academic Qualifications - Cambridge Advanced Nationals - including their recognition by higher education institutions, how they fit into a post-16 study programme, future pathways for students and more.
