Tack TMI Apprenticeships Achieves Excellent QAR – Surpassing the National Average
We are proud to share that Tack TMI Apprenticeships has achieved a Qualification Achievement Rate (QAR) of 70.2% for the 2023/24 academic year – significantly exceeding the national average of 60.5%.
This result reflects the strength of our learner-focused model and the commitment of our teams in delivering high-impact, high-quality apprenticeships that lead to meaningful success.
What is a Qualification Achievement Rate (QAR)?
Qualification Achievement Rates (QAR) are an essential benchmark in further education, showing what percentage of learners complete their qualifications successfully and on time. Calculated from national learner data, QAR help paint a clear picture of how well training providers are performing year on year.
They are used to:
- Inform national statistics and policy decisions
- Guide performance monitoring by regulators like the ESFA
- Support self-assessment and quality improvement for training providers
A Word from Amanda Kennedy, Director of Apprenticeships
“GI Group/Tack TMI Apprenticeships takes immense pride in achieving a Qualification Achievement Rate (QAR) that surpasses the national average. This accomplishment stands as a testament to the hard work, dedication, and unwavering commitment of our team, who consistently prioritise the needs and aspirations of our learners.
The QAR is a critical metric that reflects the percentage of learners who successfully complete their qualifications within a designated timeframe. It not only serves as an indicator of institutional performance but also highlights our effectiveness in fostering an environment conducive to learning and success.
The significance of a high QAR extends beyond mere statistics; it represents the culmination of our team’s efforts in delivering quality education and support tailored to each learner’s journey. By placing learners at the heart of our operations, we cultivate a culture of ambition and achievement, motivating learners to reach their fullest potential.
Furthermore, good QAR results enhance our reputation, instilling confidence in prospective learners and stakeholders regarding the quality of our educational offerings. In a competitive landscape, exceeding the national average is not just a benchmark; it is an assurance of our commitment to excellence and a reflection of the ambitious spirit that drives us forward in our educational mission.”
Why This Matters
For prospective apprentices, employers, and industry partners, QAR isn’t just a statistic – it’s a reliable measure of a provider’s ability to deliver real results.
A high QAR signals that learners are not only enrolling – they’re completing, qualifying, and progressing. It speaks to the support systems in place, the quality of teaching, and the alignment of training with real career opportunities.
At Tack TMI, this result reinforces our commitment to delivering apprenticeship programmes that genuinely empower people, strengthen businesses, and contribute to a more skilled and confident workforce.
