Figure 3.5: Stakeholder Views on whether the NFQ has made a Positive Contribution to the Enhancement of Teaching, Learning and Assessment Source: Indecon Survey of National Stakeholders re National Framework of Qualifications. Quality of Qualifications The survey questionnaire asked a number of questions in relation to the impact of the NFQ on the quality of education and training qualifications. The key results are shown in the table below. They indicate strong support for the contention that the NFQ has enhanced the quality and relevance of qualifications in Ireland. There is also strong agreement for the contention that these standards are consistently high. In the subsequent figures these responses are broken down by stakeholder groups. In the stakeholder engagement process, a view was expressed that the NFQ has had the effect of raising standards of private colleges. Concerns about the trustworthiness of certain qualifications offered to international students are being addressed, in part, by using the NFQ in regulatory reform of international education in Ireland.
