Welsh Language
The Work-based Learning (WBL) Bilingual Champion Project was funded by Welsh Government, through the Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol, to support the WBL training providers in Wales to achieve targets as set out in the Welsh Medium Education Strategy; and to support the achievement of ‘Cymraeg 2050’; the Welsh Government’s vision and aim to reach one million Welsh speakers by 2050.

Credit and Qualifications Framework for Wales (CQFW)
The National Training Federation for Wales (NTfW)’s CQFW Project aimed to identify the impact and requirements of Work-based Learning Providers, to successfully implement the introduction of the Credit and Qualifications Framework for Wales (CQFW).
It was recognised that NTfW members had to be aware of the impact and requirements to address the implications of CQFW on all existing arrangements for the delivery and management of funded outcomes. NTfW was given funding by the Welsh Assembly Government to “develop and implement an action plan to implement CQFW within the training provider sector in Wales”.
