Depending on how detailed the qualification is and how long it might take to complete, ILM qualifications fall into three sizes:

• Awards are the shortest and most concise qualification, accounting for 10 to 120 hours of learning at a return of 1-12 credits.
• Certificates (130 to 360 hours of learning) provide a broader base of knowledge and skills, and are awarded between 13 and 36 credits.

Regulated qualifications are reviewed and accredited by a regulatory body that assures the qualification offers a quality syllabus, learning outcomes, assessment and teaching strategies. The assessments of regulated qualifications are undertaken fairly to guarantee that the certificate is recognised as a valid achievement. Regulated qualifications are recognised worldwide and provide a pathway to a higher level of study. Employers also value regulated qualifications, and employees who achieve them gain a competitive advantage over others.

In the UK, qualifications at schools and colleges are regulated by Ofqual, which maintains a register providing more details on each qualification and its awarding bodies.
