Why are Progress Files being introduced?
Progress Files are being introduced to: • improve the quality and consistency of information on the learning and achievements of individual students in higher education; • raise awareness of the national qualification framework and national and international transparency of the recognition of the range of higher education awards; • contribute to the lifelong learning record of individuals; • support the process of personal development planning and strengthen the capacity of individuals to reflect upon their own learning and achievement. (Section 18, Guidelines for HE Progress Files).
