Quality Licence Scheme

ELCAS Approved Certified Courses

Our flagship certified programmes, the Certified Operational Resilience Manager (CORM®), Certified Crisis Management Professional (CCMP®), and Certified Security Risk Manager (CSRM®), are all approved under the Enhanced Learning Credits Administration Service (ELCAS). This means eligible current and former members of the UK Armed Forces can use their Enhanced Learning Credits to fund these qualifications, supporting their transition into civilian careers across resilience, security, and risk. If you are eligible for ELC funding and would like guidance on the application process, our team will be happy to help.

FAQs

  • Will I receive a certificate on completion?

    Yes, participants will receive certificates of completion for each course. For our Certified courses there are two certificates issued, one from Oakwood and one from SFJ Awards or the Skills and Education Group (depending on the course, see above).

  • What training programmes does Oakwood offer?

    We offer specialist training in Business Continuity, Crisis Management, Security Risk Management, Investigations and Incident Management.

  • How is the training delivered?

    Most of our training is delivered via our dedicated distance learning platform, Thinkific. This allows participants to learn at their own pace, access course materials remotely, and complete modules from any location.

  • Who develops the training?

    Our training is developed by highly experienced consultants with operational backgrounds in high-risk environments, including the military, police, and corporate sectors. This ensures a practical, real-world approach to our sessions.

  • Can I pay in installments?

    Yes, we offer a number of payment options at checkout, including payment spreading institutions such as PayPal.

  • What support is available during the training?

    Yes, participants will have access to online course materials, support from our expert instructors and regular feedback on assessments.

  • Can I use my phone or tablet to access the online content?

    Whilst you can use a handheld device to view the online content, it is designed to work best on a PC or laptop. Therefore, you may experience minor issues with the displayed content, depending on the type of handheld device you're using.

  • How do I register for a course?

    You can register directly through our website. Once registered, you will receive login credentials for the Thinkific platform to access your course materials.

  • What is the difference between an endorsed course and a regulated course?

    The main difference is that a regulated course is a qualification approved by a government body like Ofqual and sits on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), guaranteeing it meets national standards. An endorsed course is a bespoke program developed by a training center, such as Oakwood, and is quality-assured by an independent awarding body, such as the Skills and Education Group. The endorsement shows that the provider is committed to high quality and enables the providers to provide their learners with Certificates of Achievement and external recognition on the completion of their course. However, endorsed courses are not regulated or accredited by Ofqual.
