Australian Qualifications Framework

The Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) is a single national, comprehensive system of qualifications
offered by higher education institutions (including universities), vocational education and training institutions
and secondary schools. Each AQF qualification has a set of descriptors which define the type and complexity
of knowledge, skills and application of knowledge and skills that a graduate who has been awarded that
qualification has attained, and the typical volume of learning associated with that qualification type.
This program is at AQF Qualification Level 04. Graduates at this level will have theoretical and practical
knowledge and skills for specialised and/or skilled work and/or further learning.
