The Compatibility of Qualifications in Ireland and New Zealand
We are very pleased to announce the conclusion in March 2010 of a joint project which set out to improve the basis on which Ireland and New Zealand recognise each other’s qualifications. The project, which was undertaken by the National Qualifications Authority of Ireland (NQAI) and the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA), involved comparing the national qualifications frameworks of the two countries.


The National Qualifications Authority of Ireland is firmly committed to protecting the environment by better understanding and reducing the environmental impact of our business operations through pro-active environmental policies. The Authority is determined to minimise any adverse impacts as a result of its business. In addition, the Authority also strives to review environmental practices to ensure their continued relevance and will set specific improvement targets, monitor progress and communicate results internally.
