Credit transfer: what does it mean?: a SCOTCAT case study

Author: George, Judith; Weedon, Elisabet

Abstract:

This report looks at the outcomes of a project aimed at exploring the knowledge and understanding of the SCOTCAT [Scottish Credit Accumulation and Transfer] framework among three groups of stakeholders: students, employers and professional bodies. It also looks at the needs of these stakeholders in terms of future guidance about the framework, and the potential challenges perceived over implementation.
