Methodology
Real records.
Careful boundaries.
This release projects organisation-level fields from the Ofqual Full Register. It removes personal contact fields and does not convert qualification recognition into a legal practice decision.

Coverage & limits
A useful evidence check,
not a practice decision.
This release covers the Ofqual awarding-organisation register. It does not yet contain every professional regulator or jurisdiction.
Always confirm the qualification and your personal registration route with the relevant professional regulator before starting work.
