SCQF PARTNERSHIP EMPLOYER SUPPORT RESOURCES
The qualifications available to young people in schools in Scotland have changed significantly over recent years.  This is not only allowing our young people to find the type of learning that suits them best, but it is also helping them to develop the skills they need for future employment.  This means, however, that the language we use in recruitment also needs to change if we are to recognise these qualifications and attract applicants with these valuable skills. 
 
The SCQF Partnership offers free support to employers to help them understand the SCQF, level job roles, and use SCQF levels in recruitment rather than specific qualifications.  If you do this, you will benefit from a wider pool of applicants with the right types of skills you need, and you could also become one of our growing family of SCQF Inclusive Recruiters.
