This publication illustrates how the development and introduction of NQFs is resulting in a new representation of national education and training systems. Part 1 of the report offers a general overview and main tendencies of European NQF developments, with a brief discussion of the impact these frameworks are having. Part 2 briefly presents each national framework and the way it has been designed and structured. This description is supported by detailed tables showing how concrete qualifications and qualifications types have now been allocated to the learning-outcomes-based levels. Where available, and where referencing has taken place, the link to EQF levels is also included. Given that most countries have recently finalised the initial development of their frameworks, this report provides the first-ever comprehensive overview of the allocation of national qualifications and qualification types to learning outcomes-based NQF levels.
