Regulated Qualifications Framework

The Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) is a system used in England and the UK to categorize and compare different types of qualifications, such as certificates and diplomas. It helps determine the level of difficulty and rigour of a qualification, ranging from basic skills to highly advanced expertise. The RQF ensures that qualifications are recognized nationally and internationally, providing clarity for learners, employers, and educators about the value and difficulty of each credential. This framework promotes transparency, consistency, and progression pathways within the education and training sectors.
