Prof Quals FAQs

Why study for a professional qualification?

Obtaining a professional qualification can offer rewards. Some examples of these are entry into one's chosen career, promotion or a salary increase either within one's existing role or when looking for a new post elsewhere.

This demonstrates that one has achieved a recognised benchmark level of competence and is committed to Continuing Professional Development.

What is the view of employers?

Professional qualifications are highly regarded by employers. Being awarded a professional qualification from a particular industry body is seen as recognition of one's professional status within that industry.

In addition, professional qualifications help employers establish the competence of their employees.
