SSC Relicensing Publications

The UK Commission, in consultation with stakeholders, has produced two relicensing documents. The Employer Prospectus outlines the benefits of employers getting involved with their SSC and the Relicensing process. The Relicensing Framework for SSCs sets out the full assessment framework against which each SSC will be asked to submit evidence to support its case for relicensing and explains the process for relicensing.
