Vocationally Related Qualifications
A wide range of vocational qualifications (VRQs) are accredited onto the national qualifications framework (NQF) in England. These cover almost every industry sector, and every level of the NQF. VRQs are offered by a large number of awarding bodies and often range from broad subject areas to specialist qualifications designed for a particular sector. In many cases, suites of qualifications are available, offering progression through the various levels of the NQF. VRQs serve a range of purposes in different sectors and at different levels, and consequently vary in terms of size, level and assessments. In the active leisure and learning sector it is often these VRQs which are most valued by employers – examples include National Governing Body coaching and officiating qualifications, many fitness related qualifications which offer entrance onto the Register of Exercise Professionals, and most Awarding Bodies also offer VRQs as part of their suite of qualifications.
