The Register’s formal title is The AQF Register of Recognised Education Institutions and Authorised Accreditation Authorities in Australia.
The AQF Register is a register of every AQF qualification and the providers/institutions accredited to deliver and issue those qualifications. The Register enables the verification of AQF qualifications.
The AQF Register provides a convenient, comprehensive public access point for locally managed registers.
The locally managed registers are maintained by either government authorised accrediting bodies or self accrediting institutions.
In the schools sector, the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Certification Authorities (ACACA) website provides a central access point for all Senior Secondary Certificates of Education.
In the vocational education and training (VET) sector, the National Training Information Service (NTIS) website provides a central access point for this information.
In the higher education sector, the Going to Uni website provides a central access point to courses offered by eligible higher education providers.
