28. What is the purpose of Evaluating Qualifications?

Evaluation of qualifications is the process of analysing qualifications in terms of their country-of-origin contexts and points of difference and/or similarity in relation to local qualifications and contexts. It is a twin process that includes:

Verification: a process of authenticating the status of awarding body and/or Education and Training Provider and the qualifications offered by them, as well as investigating the authenticity of qualification documentation and verifying that the qualification was awarded an individual.

Comparability: a process which entails comparing external qualifications with NCQF qualifications, considering the structure and outcomes of qualifications; and locating them within the NCQF.
