It compares this system to traditional higher education, identifying both similarities and dissimilarities, and points to some cases in which the two interact. Findings are organized in sections covering general information, examinations, course work and providers, and costs of certification. Some of the findings of the study are the following:(1) the system is global and operated in many languages;(2) the student, not the institution, is at the center of the system;(3) the system has brought competency-based education and performance assessment to a status they have never enjoyed within traditional higher education;(4) certifications replace neither experience nor degrees, and the information technology system does not pretend to be higher education; and (5) there is a critical need for more information on certification candidates and providers of courses, since the new system is now large enough to play a role in state and national planning for postsecondary education.

  • International Qualifications 4116 EN – TI-31-12-754-EN-C
    EN EN international qualifications 4116 EN An increasing number of qualifications – certificates and diplomas – are awarded at international level, outside the – TI-31-12-754-EN-C jurisdiction of national authorities. These ‘non-State’ qualifications have been developed and are awarded by a wide range of bodies, organisations and companies addressing various purposes. What unites this extreme variety of qualifications is that they are not restricted to a particular national system or territory. They are all qualifications whose exchange value is defined outside traditional national qualifications systems. This raises some key questions and challenges for policy-makers as well as users – be they individual citizens or employers. This report is a first effort to increase transparency in this field, notably by pointing to existing sources and clarifying the concepts to be used for mapping and analysis.
