Lift College, the UK online college at liftcollege.co.uk, is now an accredited provider with the CPD Standards Office, an independent body that accredits continuing professional development (CPD) providers and learning. The accreditation was issued on 26 October 2026 under provider number 51289.
What the accreditation means
CPD accreditation is about the provider and how its learning is planned, delivered and recorded. It shows that Lift College has been assessed by the CPD Standards Office against its standards for CPD providers.
CPD courses are not regulated qualifications. They help people keep their skills and knowledge up to date and record that learning for their employer or professional body. Lift College’s Ofqual-regulated qualifications, such as GCSEs, A Levels, Functional Skills and TQUK diplomas, are awarded by their own awarding bodies and are not affected by this announcement.
We're very pleased that Lift College is now an accredited provider with the CPD Standards Office. Many of our learners study alongside work, and they need to know that the learning they record for their employer or professional body comes from a provider that has been independently assessed. The accreditation can be checked online by anyone, which matters to the learners and employers who rely on it.
