Abstract
A national qualifications framework (NQF) has become a necessity to support structural reform of the higher education system in Jordan at different institutional levels. The development and implementation of the Jordanian NQF focused on the needs of Jordanian higher education and its key stakeholders; will contribute to organizing the standards of Jordanian qualifications and other awards, and aid transparency of quality assurance at national and institutional levels. The framework also sought compatibility with international norms and expectations, including those of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA), thus assisting mobility, employability and internationalisation in Jordan and its international partners.
