Orphan date February 2009 The qualityassurance of qualifications , in the education system in England , Northern Ireland and Wales , aims to confirm the validity and standard of educational qualifications held by individuals. How qualityassurance works The qualityassurance process works by measuring learners achievement in the assessment component of a qualification against a set of clearly defined quality standards. This is opposed to measuring the learning undertaken throughout the course leading to the qualification. For general academic qualifications, qualityassurance is done largely by measuring learners achievement in exams, although other means of Educational assessment Assessment may be measured, such as coursework. For vocational qualifications, qualityassurance is done mainly by measuring achievement in coursework, or by direct observation of the learner. Responsibility for qualityassurance The qualityassurance of qualifications is the responsibility of the various United Kingdom Awarding Bodies that offer qualifications to learners, which in turn are regulated by the Office of the Qualifications and Examinations Regulator in England, the bMZXmX ZmZX Council for the Curriculum, Examinations & Assessment in Northern Ireland and the Department for Children, Education, Lifelong Learning and Skills in Wales.
