The Tariff of Qualifications (ITT) is established by mapping classes of qualifications (i.e. qualifications that cover generic standards such as the FENTO standards or NVQs in Learning and Development) to the units of assessment in the new overarching professional standards for teachers, tutors and trainers (pdf document 453KB).
The Tariff of Qualifications (ITT) does not map individually named qualifications from specific awarding institutions, unless specifically identified as such. Consequently any individual legacy qualification may cover more of the new standards than the Tariff of Qualifications (ITT) has established. However, it is the responsibility of the awarding organisation e.g. the higher education institution or national awarding body, to justify and declare where their students should enter their programme in terms of advanced standing, or any Accreditation of Prior Achievement (APA) from previously gained qualifcations.
