Edexcel is the leading awarding organisation for fire and rescue service qualifications and Apprenticeships. Our extensive range includes the Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Emergency Fire Services - Operations in the Community (QCF), which is also the competence component of the current BTEC Advanced Apprenticeship in Emergency Fire Operations.

Other competence qualifications that we currently have accredited are: Levels 3, 4, 6 and 7 Awards in Incident Command in Fire and Rescue Services (QCF), and Levels 3 and 4 qualifications in Fire Safety (QCF). The specifications are available below.
 
We have worked closely with the Sector Skills Councils throughout the development of these specifications to ensure that they fit all of the latest National Occupational Standards (NOS) and meet the needs of employers and individual learners.
