CORE SKILLS

This section lists publications about SVQs currently offered by SQA.  There is an alphabetical subject listing for publications about qualifications in particular areas - most vocational areas are covered.

Due to the size of this section, we have split it into four areas to keep it easy to navigate:

Where publications are of a technical nature (eg Cars and portfolios) these are listed in the SVQ Subject-specific page section.
