Northern Ireland Framework for Validation of Foundation Degrees

Summary:

The Department for Employment and Learning, in consultation with key stakeholders, has developed a framework which provides all of the partners involved in the development and validation of Foundation Degrees with a clear timetable for progression towards validation. In addition, the 10-point checklist document is intended as a guide for HE/FE institutions to demonstrate how their proposed Foundation degree(s) maps against the appropriate Sector Skills Council Foundation Degree Sectoral Framework.
