Professional qualifications in the United Kingdom
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Professional qualifications in the United Kingdom are titles or awards granted by professional bodies.[1] Many British professional qualifications were subject to the European directives on professional qualifications[1] and are (following Brexit) covered by amended versions of those regulations as enacted in British law.[2] Most, but not all, professional qualifications are 'Chartered' qualifications, and follow on from having been admitted to a degree (or having an equivalent qualification). The term "professional qualification" can also be used to refer to higher-level vocational qualifications in "professional" roles.[3][4]
