Making entries for SPDE

Centres should only make certificate claims for units and qualifications when they are satisfied that the portfolios meet all the assessment criteria and the work has been Internally Moderated.

Units and qualifications can be purchased by logging onto The Prince's Trust Qualifications Portal.
Making a claim on The Portal is the official stage of informing The Prince’s Trust that these learners are being submitted for External Moderation. All entries will be charged, so it is important that learners are only entered for the units that have been completed, assessed and Internally Moderated.
