The Learning & Skills Council is a key partner in a major programme of reform known as the UK Vocational Qualification Reform Programme.
The reform programme will introduce a number of significant changes and from August 2008 will start to impact on the vocational qualifications offered to adult learners.
The key changes include:
placing employers, via Sector Skills Councils, in the centre of qualification development for their sector and
the introduction of a more flexible qualification framework for learners, known as the Qualification and Credit Framework (QCF).
