Philippine Qualifications Framework

The Philippine Qualification Framework (PQF) is the national level qualifications framework used in the Philippines.

The Philippines, as a member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), adopts the ASEAN Qualifications Reference Framework (AQRF) to link national qualifications framework across ASEAN member states.

The PQF is implemented by the Department of Education (DepEd), Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA), Commission on Higher Education (CHED), Professional Regulation Commission (PRC), Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), and Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).
