Setting the context: The credit landscape, summer 2015 Dr Mark Atlay Dr Helen Corkill

Yesterday Qualification structures well defined Clear course and module outcomes supports consistency across the sector(?) Structures that (might) support mobility Structures and processes to support working across boundaries (eg academic and vocational, FE/HE etc)

Today Qualification descriptors Intermediate awards and defining learning outcomes Higher and degree apprenticeships: credit implications, QCF 3

Tomorrow? Mobility? Credit defining programmes within institutions rather than supporting student development and progression UK: Each of home UK countries going its own way / using credit in own systems / more fragmented approach Europe: consistency of credit, UCAS from 2015; Level 5 awards; geographical consortia e.g. Baltic, Scandinavia QAA: developing credit guidelines with QAA Language of credit: fine-tuning condonement, compensation, award definitions Learning gain? Just what is it and how would you measure it for students progressing with credit from elsewhere?

What other topical issues are there?
