What is NZQA?


What is NZQA?

The New Zealand Qualifications Authority's primary function is to coordinate the administration and quality assurance of national qualifications in New Zealand.

The overall role of the New Zealand Qualifications Authority is to be the independent, and impartial expert organisation, which can be relied upon to administer robust National Qualifications Framework assessment systems and provide reliable quality assurance systems that deliver on our statutory accountabilities.

This is in order that New Zealand qualifications are accepted as credible and robust, nationally and internationally. NZQA seeks to do this through operational excellence and clarity of purpose.

Among other things, The Qualifications Authority :

-registers and monitors all national qualifications on the National Qualifications Framework

-runs national senior secondary school examinations

-registers and monitors private providers of education and training to ensure they meet quality standards

-administers a qualifications recognition service for overseas people wanting to live, work or study in New Zealand

new zealand qualifications authority

It has a function as described by another answerer, but the Authority is seen by NZers to be a political front to make the present party in power feel warm and fuzzy by feeding them figures on how good they are doing as a result of carrying out the government's whims.
The Authority is failing those it was set up to serve, ie the students.
