Educational Framework

The local education and training framework is governed by the Malta Further and Higher Education Authority. This framework known as the Malta Qualifications Framework (MQF) is pegged with the European Qualification Framework (EQF), and basically consists of eight (8) distinct level of competence.

The diagram below, taken from the Referencing report published by MFHEA in 2016 clearly defines the different levels of the MQF/EQF.
