Quality Assurance
The Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF) carried out a full 4 yearly Periodic Review of the Scottish Police College, Tulliallan as an SCQF Credit Rating Body (CRB) in November 2024. Once again, the College received a Green/Very Low Risk status against all criteria within the SCQF Quality Assurance Model used to measure the effectiveness of CRB systems and processes. The college continues to be 1 of only 9 organisations out with the FE/HE sector to be afforded CRB status.
In January 2025 the Scottish Police College was also subject to a full 2-3 yearly Systems Verification audit by the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA). This also resulted in a “green” status against all 26 SQA criteria with a number of areas of good practice identified. This allows the college continued recognition as an SQA Approved Centre and the awarding of the Certificate in Policing/Modern Apprenticeship.
These significant achievements are reflective of the effectiveness of the quality assurance systems and processes developed and managed by LTD, which support continued external recognition by SCQF and SQA and allow continued awarding of formal credit and qualifications to learners who successfully complete a range of Police Scotland programmes.
