Certification and accreditation

Upon successful completion of each part of the programme, the learner will be issued with a certificate of achievement.  Many receptionists proudly display their certificates in the reception area.

In practice, the vast majority of learners and are primarily interested in acquiring knowledge with the benefit of portfolio development and a verified certificate of achievement. These are the essential tools provided by PRP. However, the following information will be of interest to those who wish to gain a formal qualification.

Formal Qualification

AMSPAR recognises PRP ‘as being suitable for AMSPAR qualifications’ and those who successfully complete PRP Parts 1, 2 and 3 are eligible to apply at an approved AMSPAR centre to sit the assignment. Successful participants will receive The AMSPAR Certificate in Health Service Administration. The AMSPAR website www.AMSPAR.co.uk provides further information on approved centres and the fees involved.

PRP is also invaluable in supporting learners to gain evidence towards the underpinning knowledge required for the S/NVQ Administration level 2. Those who want to gain formal qualification using PRP will need to contact the appropriate awarding body who will supply the details of local centres accredited to offer the award. These local centres will be able to assist with any further queries.
