Quality delivery portal

The Quality delivery portal is the online administration platform used throughout your T Level journey with City & Guilds to facilitate the secure submission of GDPR sensitive documents.

Providers will initially be given access to the portal once a full Provider application form has been accepted by the Technicals quality team, to allow for the required supporting documents, like policies, procedures, staff CVs and Certificates, to be shared securely. This portal is where we will share reports from the various quality assurance activities throughout the year. We will also share the live assessment material for the Employer Set Project and the Occupational Specialism on this platform to the relevant staff members.

Take me to the Quality Delivery Portal

The Quality delivery portal centre user guide can be downloaded below, which explains how to use the portal and how to access and upload evidence.

Moderation portal

The Moderation Portal is the online administration platform used to facilitate the submission of marks and evidence and the moderation of the Occupational Specialism for T Level qualifications.

Submitting evidence to Moderation Portal may take a significant amount of time depending on the number of users, network speeds, file sizes and number of learners you are uploading evidence for. Therefore, we strongly advise centres to prepare and upload evidence in advance of the submission deadlines wherever possible.
