The Standard looked at all aspects of information and guidance provided by the college, including promotion of the service, the quality of information and guidance provided to the customer, relevance of information and that support is given to individuals in exploring their options and planning for the future.
Additionally, the college has to ensure that all staff working in that field are suitably qualified and supported to complete their roles effectively and feedback is collected from students on the services provided and it is used to improve services.
