EQF Note 5: Referencing national qualifications levels to the EQF; update 2013

New EQF Note - with 3s - contribution - now published.

This Note is part of the European Qualifications Framework Series, which is written for those involved in the implementation of the EQF. The Note updates the discussion points in Note 3, which was written on the basis of the first four referencing reports.

By April 2012, thirteen countries had presented referencing reports to the EQF Advisory Group, and these reports and the discussions of them at meetings of the EQF Advisory Group have been used to prepare this 2nd updated edition of the Note. The particular purpose of this Note is to support further discussion and decisionmaking on the processes and methodologies of referencing national qualifications levels to the levels of the EQF and on presenting the results of the referencing process.

The text was drafted by Mike Coles (expert from the UK) and Karin Luomi Messerer (3s).
