"move on up" case study

This case study was produced with the Move On organisation.  Move On offers a direct appproach to promotion, engagement and delivery of skills for life qualifications as well as offering practical strategies to support quality improvement.  The case study was written after we were approached by Anna Poulton (Move On Up Adviser) who said that she would like to produce a case study on how we effectively deliver skills for life qualifications.
