Project implementation
Taking forward the Qualifications Information Review's recommendations will deliver real benefits to learners, teachers and advisers, and HEIs, including:
- The provision of clearer information to learners, teachers and advisers about the qualifications required and preferred by HEIs as preparation for progression to various courses of HE study. This should help more applicants make the right choices for the right reasons.
- The provision of better, more consistent, comparable and searchable information about qualifications to admissions staff. This will reduce the amount of time that admissions staff spend researching and comparing less familiar qualifications, contributing to efficiency gains and enabling more consistent decision-making and supporting widening participation efforts.
UCAS will take the Qualifications Information Review's recommendations forward through the New Qualifications Information System (NQIS) Project.
We shall update these NQIS project implementation pages with information about progress, timeframes, activities and the new project governance over the next few months.
