Having undertaken a comparative analysis on the basis of these three factors,
it can be concluded that the HQF levels and the EQF levels are the same in
Greece. It is now well established that this concept is in harmony with the
general approach of the EQF and, indeed, is widely considered to be an
effective vehicle for the transparent inclusion of qualifications in the HQF.

Summary
The European Qualifications Framework (EQF) is a scoreboard for all types of
qualifications that is used to compare qualification levels across different
education systems. All qualifications awarded in Europe relate to the NQF level
and through them to the EQF. Within the European Union, each country
develops its own NQF model, and then refers to the EQF in the so-called a
reference report, thanks to which each country is responsible for its education
system, assessment of qualifications, and therefore also for how the practice will
verify the value that will be assigned to its qualifications. Poland and the
Slovenian Qualifications Framework, like the European Qualifications

Framework (EQF), consists of eight levels of qualifications and each NQF level is
described by descriptors. In order to ensure an effective correlation between
the national framework and the European Qualifications Framework,
references should be made in the various areas of responsibility, coordination,
legal / administrative, methodological and quality assurance. In Greece, the
relationship between the qualification levels of the Greek Qualifications
Framework (NQF) and the level descriptors of the European Qualifications

Framework (EQF) is derived primarily from the use of EQF descriptors as a guide
for the development of Greek NQF levels.
