Caribbean Vocational Qualifications

What is the CVQ?

The Caribbean Vocational Qualification (CVQ) is a competency-based approach to certification. The process allows you to use your accumulated knowledge to demonstrate your ability in performing certain skills for a specific occupational area.

To achieve this qualification, your work performance has to be successfully assessed against the specific Occupational Standard by Assessors, who are trained and certified by the Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Council.
