Each Local Authority has a designated SQH coordinator who has responsibility for the organisation and administration of all aspects of the SQH provision in that area and also for liaison with the HEIs in the provider consortium and with SEED.  The Local Authority SQH Coordinator additionally arranges for regular network meetings to take place for groups of SQH candidates.  These are used to work through some of the Study materials and also to discuss general SQH issues and arrangements as well as principles relating to candidates' learning programmes and project work.  All enquiries, etc relating to SQH provision should be addressed in the first instance to the local SQH coordinator.
