What is a SCQF Ambassador
The SCQF School Ambassador programme offer Schools the opportunity to learn more about the benefits of the SCQF and the wider ways in which it support learners such as recognising wider achievement, developing Senior Phase learning pathways in line with the 'Developing the Young Workforce'
What is the SCQF?
The SCQF is a way of comparing Scottish qualifications to other qualification framework. It does this by giving each qualification a level and a number of credit points.
- the level of a qualification shows how difficult the learning is.
- The credit points show how much learning is involved in achieving that qualification.
It covers achievements from School, College, University and many work based qualifications.
SCQF can help:
- decide how you progress in your learning
- understand qualifications you are not familiar with
- employers understand different types of qualifications and help development of employees skills
- Colleges and Universities identify the level that has been studied in a particular subject and make it easier to transfer credit points between different learning programmes
- provide recognition of other areas of your learning that may contribute to your personal development and your future goals
