SCQF Week Media Toolkit | Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework

SCQF Week 2023 Media Toolkit

The Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF) is the national qualifications framework for Scotland and plays a vital role in the recognition of the skills and experience of individuals in Scotland.

SCQF Week is an online event running between 13-17 March, and intends to highlight the important part the SCQF plays in the learner journey. It will celebrate the achievements of individuals, showcase best practice in the use of the framework across a range of sectors, and raise awareness of the SCQFP’s latest projects and developments amongst partners and stakeholders.
