Support for Colleges & Higher Education Institutions

The SCQF Partnership supports the work of Scotland’s Colleges and Higher Education Institutions by:

providing a range of resources to help learners navigate their learning journey and assist staff in understanding the SCQF, its aims and benefits, and how it links to other countries' frameworks
offering a range of workshops for staff on credit rating for the SCQF and RPL. We also offer a range of bespoke workshops/support.

All of Scotland’s Colleges and Higher Education Institutions are existing Credit Rating Bodies (CRBs) and therefore able to add learning to the Framework.

Over 10,500 different programmes sit on the SCQF covering both mainstream provision, professional learning and a wide range of wider achievement, community based, transition and evening class programmes.
