The second World Congress of Colleges and Polytechnics was held in Melbourne, Australia in March 2002. The Congress explored outcomes aligned to themes of accessibility, technology and globalisation, strengthening partnerships and youth as a vocational education and training (VET) customer. This paper reports on a project intended to look at the context within which English colleges sought and achieved accreditation from the USA to award Associates' Degrees as part of the wider project aim of benchmarking international vocational qualifications. The strategic issues that have arisen from this project are discussed and insight given into the challenge of researching international curriculum development.
