Analysis of Peculiarities of National Qualification Frameworks Implementation in Ukraine

- Insufficient transparency and comparability of qualifications received in different countries - Fragmental and declarative nature of legislative basis in the field of education and social and labour relations - Necessity of further improving of the institutional infrastructure which further national and international recognition of qualification recieved in Ukraine. - Complexity of qualification use in different branches and sectors. - Necessity of participation in professional unions (associations) in the regulations formation.

Recommendations
