Information on CVQ Training

Caribbean Vocational Qualification (CVQ)

​

The Caribbean Vocational Qualification or CVQ as it is commonly called, is based on a competency-based approach to training, assessment and certification. Candidates are expected to demonstrate competence in attaining occupational standards developed by practitioners, industry experts and employers. Those standards when approved by CARICOM, allow for easy movement across the Region. Currently, CVQs are planned to reflect a qualification framework of five levels. These are:

​

  1. Level 1 Directly Supervised/Entry –Level Worker                     

  2. Level 2 Supervised Skilled Worker

  3. Level 3 Independent or Autonomous Skilled Worker

  4. Level 4 Specialized or Supervisory Worker

  5. Level 5 Managerial and/or Professional Worker

Benefits of CVQ:

  1. Ensures performance in the workplace.

  2. Parallel standing with academic qualification.

  3. Is recognized and portable within CARICOM. It is also recognized and
    accepted outside of the region including Canada and the United States of
    America.

Who can be CVQ Certified?

The CVQ is an inclusive system that allows anyone to join at any point or level once the individual demonstrates the level of knowledge, skills and attitude required for the particular level of the framework.
