Australian Qualifications Framework

The Australian Qualifications Framework provides the hierarchy of educational qualifications in Australia. It is administered nationally by the Australian Government Department of Education, Science and Technology. Few qualifications outside the system are accepted by employers or for entry to tertiary study. The main exceptions are IT vendor certifications, the International Baccalaureate and the UMAT.

The framework divides all qualifications into three sectors, roughly correlating with the type of institution offer the courses. However, this correlation is becoming looser over time.
