Our expertise can be used in the following key areas:

Evaluation and benchmarking of qualifications

Using specialist knowledge, UK NARIC provides analysis of qualifications to establish degrees of comparison with recognised national and international standards. Our evaluation and recognition of programmes involves systematic examination of qualification design, assessment and quality assurance mechanisms. Clients such as Awarding Bodies, Professional Associations, Education Authorities, National and International education providers use UK NARIC expertise to facilitate the acceptance of international programmes and to promote international competitiveness.

Competency, skills and skills-based assessments

UK NARIC conducts analysis of skills and competencies acquired through formalised programmes and work-based training. This process identifies core competencies of overseas training programmes and compares these to National Standards in specific sectors or occupations. Industry Organisations, Sector Skills Councils and stakeholders involved in the assessment of overseas vocational qualifications engage us to identify areas for up-skilling or re-training, allowing the development of appropriate standards for employment and / or professional registration.

Providing league tables and academic ranking

The UK NARIC Projects Group is best placed to produce tailored and purpose-specific ranking outcomes utilising its extensive bank of information and the methodology designed for evaluation of education standards.
