Credit rating service

At Glasgow Caledonian University (GCU), we work with partners to evaluate the courses they run and provide a quality assurance process that academically levels and quantifies equivalent academic credit in line with the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF).

Whether you are looking to add value to your in-house training programmes or to develop the sales potential and currency of your own bespoke courses in a commercial market, we are happy to work with you to assess the potential to credit rate and micro-credential your products.

You can go one stage further and link your credit-rated content to our academically accredited learning under the umbrella of our latest solution in self or business directed qualification design: the GCU Flexible Framework (Undergraduate and Post-graduate Flexible Framework for Applied Professional Work-Based programmes and Applied Professional Practice Doctorate).

This innovative learning framework gives your cumulative professional and academic learning a home, credit equivalency and tangible building blocks towards a recognised award or qualification.

Our quality assured approach to adding GCU academic credit to your bespoke training and education provides you, your clients, your team with curated, portable academic and equivalent credit that will become valuable testimony to Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

We can also offer solutions through Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and negotiated work-based modules to count credit for the work that you do. In a lifelong learning journey, as professional people and teams build hybrid careers and navigate the challenges of curating their learning in one place, we have a flexible solution that enables you to import a range of achievements.

At GCU, we have strong, selective partnerships across a range of industries.  Our pioneering approach to credit rating is thorough, focused on quality enhancement and improvement but above all client-centric and collaborative.  Contact us now for more information at creditrating@gcu.ac.uk
