What happens next

We’ll guide you through the next stages of becoming an approved centre.

Step 1: We review your application

Our team will review the information you’ve provided to understand your organisation and delivery goals.

Step 2: We get in touch

A City & Guilds or ILM representative will contact you within five working days to discuss your needs and confirm the next steps.

Step 3: We help you move forward

Following your consultation, we’ll guide you through the next stage of the application process and explain what’s required to progress towards approval.


While we review your application, you can

  • Explore qualification and apprenticeship standard pages to understand assessment approaches and centre requirements
  • Review the types of programmes you may want to deliver in the future
  • Prepare any questions you’d like to discuss during your consultation

You’re one step closer to becoming an approved centre
