The Eswatini Qualification Framework is defined as an instrument to facilitate development, grading, classification, comparison and recognition of skills, knowledge and competencies acquired through a learning experience including theory and practice and along a range of agreed levels.

The purpose for the development of the Eswatini Qualifications Framework (ESQF) is twofold; promoting lifelong learning and quality assurance and recognition. Each level represents groupings of qualifications sharing similar characteristics as described by the level descriptors. Our courses are designed to be completed at different ESQF levels. This facilitates entry and exist to courses depending on need and availability of resources to the learner. Learners may progress from level 4 through to Level 9 provided they successfully complete the preceding level.
