An NVQ (National Vocational Qualification) is a work-based qualification – which is carried out at a college, school, workplace or training centre.
An NVQ is a way of evidencing your knowledge and skills needed to do a job. The candidate needs to demonstrate their competency in their chosen NVQ pathway.
