What is QCF?

The Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF) is the new way of recognising achievement through the award of credit for units and qualifications across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

It provides more flexible routes to gaining full qualifications and enables progression to be achieved in smaller steps through the accumulation of credit.
