The Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework is the national qualifications framework for Scotland.
It promotes lifelong learning, with the aim being to include all qualifications and assessed learning in Scotland so that learners can identify their current position on the SCQF and plan their future learning.
- The SCQF measures qualifications and learning by levels and credit points.
- The SCQF has 12 levels, as the levels increase from 1 to 12, the learning involved becomes more challenging.
- The number of points demonstrates the length of time it takes to complete.
- One SCQF point represents 10 hours of learning time.
