Purpose of VQ Day
There are many paths to success, and vocational qualifications are one of them. Millions of people gain a vocational qualification every year as a stepping stone to further study, better jobs and enhanced skills. We think this is something worth celebrating.
VQ Day:
- gives national-level recognition to individuals who achieve great success through a vocational route. Academic achievements such as GCSE and A level results have always been celebrated, but it is equally important that the achievements of those who choose to study through a vocational route are recognised and celebrated on the national stage.
- provides opportunities to explain and demonstrate vocational skills and engage more people in understanding more about the range of learning pathways and vocational qualifications that are available.
