In New Zealand the framework allows you be transparent and to line all the qualifications up, so
you remove a lot of confusion. It becomes clearer. It’s like building a house.
You need to have a plan to have everything in the right place.
Everybody understands the same thing and it is transferable.
We have been connected with Thailand since 1950.
Thailand and New Zealand are working collaboratively on an understanding, helping each other.
About the qualification framework sorting out things. One thing that is highlighted for me is the issues are the same. Every country is dealing with the same problem. Vocational education. Renew, replace everything.
We all need people who have skills. Not enough people to share, so we have to create our own people.
We need a qualifications system to do that.
