Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning

The Danish Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning provides an overview of qualifications levels and shows the level of different qualifications in relation to one another. This underpins lifelong learning. The Qualifications Framework is also useful for comparing Danish and non-Danish qualifications. This promotes mobility across national borders.
