QCF Qualifications
What is the QCF?
The QCF is the Qualifications and Credit Framework and is a new way of recognising achievement through the award of credit for units and qualifications. There are eight levels within the QCF, entry and level 1 which forms the Foundation Learning Tier and levels 2 - 8. The level of the units and qualifications shows the difficulty level. Each unit and qualification will have a credit value which reflects how much time it takes for a learner to complete. 10 hours of learning is equal to 1 credit. There will be three sizes of qualification in the QCF:
- Awards (1- 12 credits)
- Certificates (13 - 36 credits)
- Diplomas (37+ credits)
