Case studies
The Unit Award Scheme (UAS) is used by lots of organisations in many different ways to formally recognise and reward learner achievement.
These case studies are written by our centres to show the innovative ways they are using UAS to engage and motivate learners.
You will see how flexible and adaptable the scheme is in supporting all sorts of learning opportunities whatever subject, topic or activity covered.
Learn what teachers like about using UAS, and hear what it means to students to take part in the scheme and receive their certificates.
