Approved Centres

List of Approved Centres (pdf)

The list provides information on centres currently 'approved' to run either or both of the Level 3 or 4 programmes. Some centres may suspend registration of students for a period of time depending on demand. These centres will still be approved as providers for a limited period of time and therefore may restart the running of a programme at a later date.

Students are requested to contact the colleges directly to determine which programmes are available at the time of interest.

Although the CIOB makes every effort to ensure details contained within the attached centres list are accurate and up-to-date, please contact us should you experience any difficulty locating a college or making contact with course leaders.
