The Edexcel Licence Agreement was originally introduced in 1992 and revised substantially in 2003. The latest version of the Licence Agreement was issued in June 2007.

The Licence Agreement was devised in conjunction with our Higher Education Institution customers and recognises the autonomy of degree-awarding HEIs in developing, delivering and franchising BTEC qualifications as institutionally validated awards.

On this page you will find the Information Handbook for Licensed HEIs. This document is designed to assist institutions in the development, delivery and management of institutionally validated BTEC programmes. Part A is the latest version of the Licence Agreement (due for review in 2013). In Part B you can find out how to become a licensed institution and read guidance and information on the operation of the Licence Agreement by institutions.

Please contact BTECdelivery@edexcel.com if you have any queries about the Licence.
