QUALIFICATIONS EXPLAINED

All you need to know about the different levels of qualifications on offer.

Like all Scottish universities and colleges, we use the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework( SCQF) levels to describe our courses. It shows how you can build up a series of points( known as“ credit points”) to gain the qualification you want, transfer these credits onto other courses, and compare levels across different courses and qualifications.
Remember- there’ s no one set or right way to progress through school, college, university and into the job you want. And one of the benefits of college is how flexible your route can be, with so many options available to suit your own circumstances. You can even take time out of your studies and pick them up again at a later stage.
