10 Years of Marked Achievement

SQA was established in April 1997 to combine the roles of the Scottish Vocational Education Council (SCOTVEC) and the Scottish Examination Board (SEB). We are now responsible for the development, assessment and certification of most qualifications in Scotland (except university degrees). 1.25 million Scots hold an SQA qualification!

Our first ten years have been ten years of marked achievements. Some lows but lots of highs: development in assessment and certification; SCQF; qualifications to suit all kinds of learners; 80 years of HN qualifications and lots more. To celebrate our 10th anniversary we have produced a DVD charting our story since 1997. The DVD was launched at our Customer Conference and you can get a copy by getting in touch with our Customer Contact Centre (e-mail: customer@Sqa.org.uk, tel: 0845 279 1000).
