Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF)

The Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) is the system that identifies the various levels of educational qualifications in Australia.  AQF qualifications are nationally recognised and progress through increasingly complex work and learning situations, which prepares you for more responsibility in the workplace or further education. AQF qualifications require you to successfully complete a range of tasks to demonstrate your competence. In many cases, the material studied can be related to the tasks you perform in your workplace, and the studies you do at one level may reduce the time you need to study to gain a qualification at a higher level.  www.aqf.edu.au
