The Czech qualifications framework has been developed as a part of the National Qualifications Framework, which supports the interconnection between initial and continuing education (NQF).
This is a system project of the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the CR aimed at creating a system environment that will support:
- Comparability of the results of learning achieved by different learning and education methods;
- Recognition of real skills and competences - independence on the forms and methods of learning;
- Transfer of labour market requirements into education;
- Public awareness of all qualifications recognized at nation-wide level;
- Comparability of qualifications levels in the Czech Republic and the EU.
The info about the concept and content of the National Qualifications Framework and its hitherto development is summed up by the NQF's website: www.nsk.nuov.cz.
