About QQI:
Since June 2001 QQI/FETAC has been the statutory awarding body for further education and training in Ireland. On November 6th 2012 FETAC completed its amalgamation with HETAC, NQAI and IUQB, and a new integrated agency called Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI). All awards will now be made and issued by QQI. Under this new system QQI Awards will be part of an aligned Common Awards System and QQI Providers will have to obtain validation for each individual QQI award they wish to deliver.
QQI give people the opportunity to gain Internationally recognised awards for their learning. QQI's mission is to make quality assurance awards in accordance with national standards within the national framework, creating opportunities for all learners in further education and training to have their achievements recognised and providing access to progression.
