What is a vocational qualification?
A vocational qualification is a type of certification or credential that focuses on providing practical skills and knowledge needed for specific trades, professions, or careers. Unlike traditional academic degrees, which often emphasize theoretical learning, vocational qualifications are designed to prepare individuals for direct entry into the workforce by teaching job-specific skills.

Encouraging colleagues to pursue vocational qualifications:
benefits an organisation by enhancing skills and expertise, increasing efficiency, reducing training costs, and improving employee engagement
leads to better problem-solving, higher quality work, improved talent retention, greater adaptability, and ensures compliance with industry standards
What are the benefits to students in choosing a vocational qualification?
Choosing a vocational qualification:
offers practical, job-specific skills, faster entry into the job market, and cost-effective training
provides a clear career path, increases employability, and includes industry-recognised credentials and hands-on experience
makes students job-ready and specialised in their chosen field.
