NVQs (National Vocational Qualifications)

National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) are work-based qualifications in the UK that assess a person's skills and knowledge in a specific job role. They focus on practical competence, meaning candidates demonstrate their abilities in real work settings rather than through traditional exams. NVQs are structured at different levels, indicating the complexity of the skills required, from basic to advanced. They are designed to help individuals improve their job prospects and enhance their professional development, benefiting both employees and employers by ensuring a skilled workforce that meets industry standards.
