Non-accredited training refers to structured, taught learning that takes place outside of the formal qualifications system, though it can take place in formal education settings. This type of training can also take place in the workplace or through adult and community education and can include: courses in recreation; personal enrichment courses; first aid courses; bridging courses; individual statements of attainment. Non-accredited training courses do not lead to recognised qualifications nationally or internationally. Research in this area focusses on better understanding the role of training outside of the formal qualifications system.
