Updated: Revised edition of the Awarding Organisations list uploaded on 30 May 2016.

Awarding organisations (AOs) authorise and award learner qualifications in the UK and upload these into the personal learning record (PLR).

The learning records service (LRS) offers the unique learner number (ULN) and PLR to enable qualification data from AOs to be shared securely and efficiently within the education and skills sector.

The how to join and use the learning records service guide provides information on how to register, explains how to verify ULNs and how to upload qualification data to the PLR.
