TQUK Fees and Pricing
August 2023
Fees and pricing play a major part in the decision to work with an Awarding or End-Point Assessment Organisation. That’s why we always aim to be as transparent as possible and make our prices competitive without compromising on our quality assurance standards.
We will, in all cases, take reasonable steps to publish clear, up-to-date, and easily accessible fees and pricing information for potential customers and satisfy reasonable planning requirements. Where we cannot publish a finalised fee, we will instead provide a reasonable indication of the likely fees and make it clear that the fee is indicative.
All amounts and fees stated or referred to shall be payable in pounds sterling and are exclusive of value-added tax, which will be added to invoices at the appropriate rate.

All of our qualifications are available to purchase outside of England. Fees and pricing apply both domestically and internationally, with the exception of TQUK Business Hub regions and fees and pricing that have been specifically advertised as UK, Domestic or International.
If you’re based in the ESEA region and have specific questions about pricing in that area, please visit our ESEA page or email the team at office@tquk-esea.org.
