ISDC-SQA Customised Qualifications
ISDC has partnered with SQA and following a rigorous approval process, is now able to offer its own customised awards. SQA Customised Awards are Unique Qualifications developed in collaboration with training providers and educational organisations, such as ISDC, to achieve uniquely customised qualifications that are quality assured by SQA and recognised for credit transfer to many UK universities. The qualifications offered by ISDC are Approved, Quality Assured, Regulated and Awarded by SQA, making ISDC is an approved centre for SQA Customised Awards.
ISDC’s suite of qualifications is mapped against the credit framework and the skills framework of the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF) to provide quality assurance and progression.This alignment with the SCQF provides transparency and portability to ISDC’s qualifications and makes it possible to compare qualifications from different countries and institutions and enable those who hold credits to progress to undergraduate degrees awarded in the UK.
All qualifications that are mapped to the SCQF have skills and competencies at their core and therefore integrate the employability skills, such as problem-solving and application of knowledge, communication, IT and teamwork and leadership skills employers seek in work-ready graduate employees.The recognised suite of qualifications provides the flexibility to progress to the third or final years of a UK university.
