A range of information notes has been developed for CRBs. These notes are aimed at providing CRBs with additional guidance on specific topics of interest expanding on the information within the SCQF Handbook and also the Quality Assurance Model for SCQFP Approved CRBs.

Information Notes Series 1: Third Party Credit Rating for Credit Rating Bodies

Information Notes Series 2: Externality for Credit Rating Bodies

Information Notes Series 3: Annual Monitoring and Programme Review

We plan to continue to develop more information notes on topics of interest so if you are a CRB do get in touch with us if you think there is a topic that would benefit from additional guidance.

Ongoing Quality Assurance - SCQFP Approved CRBs

As an SCQFP approved CRB the cycle of annual monitoring falls into two categories:

Annual Monitoring - 2020 fees Desk based £500 or with visit £750

Periodic Review - 2020 fee £3250 plus travel and subsistence

To request templates for either of the above please contact Helen Murdoch-Wilson

Ongoing Quality Assurance -Universities and Colleges

For universities and other higher education institutions which have credit rated provision, this is the responsibility of the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) and will form part of their overall monitoring processes of quality assurance generally.

For colleges with credit rated provision, the quality assurance of credit rating activities will be carried out by SCQFP. 

Education Scotland continue to evaluate colleges in relation to the quality of provision and services through 'How Good Is Our College?'

Third-Party Credit Rating

Interested in gaining the authority to credit rate programmes belonging to other organisations who wish to have them placed on the SCQF?  

The benefits of this can be seen in the following case study:
