CONCEPT OVERVIEW of NTVQF

The Bangladesh Skills Development System has two components; the National Training and Vocational Qualifications Framework (NTVQF) and the National Skills Quality Assessment System.  Together, these ensure quality, demand-based skills development in Bangladesh. The NTVQF is a comprehensive, nationally consistent yet flexible framework for all qualifications in technical and vocational education and training.
