Today marks the official launch of SIAS as an Awarding Organisation!

Steve Smith, Managing Director, said:

“As Managing Director of SIAS, I am incredibly proud today at the launch of our new Awarding Organisation (AO), which marks a significant milestone in our journey.

“Over recent years, SIAS has established itself as the leading End Point Assessment Organisation (EPAO) for STEM industries, gaining a reputation for quality and innovation as we have positively disrupted the apprenticeship assessment space.

“This new venture represents a significant investment into the future and enables us to expand our positive impact even further, building on strong foundations as we now bring the same level of excellence and value we have delivered as an EPAO, to the qualifications and wider Awarding markets.

“The decision to expand to full AO status is rooted in our commitment to delivering high-quality, industry-relevant qualifications that empower individuals and help businesses thrive. By leveraging our expertise gained as an EPAO, we are uniquely positioned to now also provide world-class awarding services and qualifications that meet both employer and learner needs.

“My incredible teams have worked tirelessly to ensure that the highest standards that we set as an EPAO will carry through to this next chapter, ensuring that we can, and will, make a real difference.

“As we move forward, we remain focused on continuing to repay the trust that our partners, learners, and stakeholders have placed in us, and we are excited to continue shaping the future of STEM skills development in the UK and beyond.”
