Pearson Qualifications
The story of Pearson becoming the UK’s largest awarding Organisation did not start with the formation of Edexcel in 1996
It began as long ago as 1836, when a royal charter gave the University of London its first powers to conduct exams and confer degrees on its students.
Pearson College London was established in 2012 with a clear mission – to become the UK’s leading provider of industry-focused university education.
In May 2013, Pearson unveiled a new structure combining its separate education companies, Pearson International and Pearson North America into one Pearson company organised around three global lines of business – School, Higher Education and Professional.
