Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF)

The Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) is a system in England that categorizes qualifications based on their level of difficulty and the knowledge required. It helps people understand and compare different qualifications, from basic level (like GCSEs) to advanced qualifications (like doctorates). Each level in the RQF represents a stage of learning and achievement, making it easier for employers, educators, and learners to recognize the value of a qualification. Essentially, it provides a structured way to navigate the educational landscape, ensuring clarity and consistency in qualifications.
