OCN Credit 4 Learning

As a member of the National Register of Self-Management, tutors that have been accredited to deliver the CDSMC or Staying Positive courses have the ability to apply for OCN Learning Credits and get their learning recognised as a professional qualification.

What are Learning Credits?

Learning Credits are a way of measuring and valuing your learning. They are nationally recognised and accepted as means of entry into employment and further learning with further and/or higher education. 

Accredited tutors trained to deliver EPP courses in England can now be accredited with 15 credits which is the equivalent to A’ level or NVQ Level 3 achievement. For more information on The Open College Network go to www.ocnotc.com. 

Am I eligible?

If you are trained and accredited as a Tutor for an Expert Patient Programme Course in England then you are eligible to apply for Learning Credits. Even if your accreditation has lapsed, you can still be awarded credits. However, we do stipulate that all applicants must be on The National Register of Self-Management (NRSM). If you would like further information or a registration form please contact admin@selfmanagement.co.uk or call 0333 344 1800

What Evidence will I need to provide?

We need to know who trained you and who accredited you, when and how long ago. We may ask you to provide physical evidence of your accreditation so that we can a) verify your information and b) prove to the OCN Credit 4 Learning during their auditing process that we are only giving credits to people that have been properly accredited.
