They allow an individual to work and gain a better degree at the same time. GAs are nationally recognized, accredited, and certified by a learning provider. In the case of GAs at SCQF Level 9, 10 or 11, they lead to a higher education degree or post graduate award.

They allow an individual to work and gain a better degree at the same time. GAs are nationally recognized, accredited, and certified by a learning provider. In the case of GAs at SCQF Level 9, 10 or 11, they lead to a higher education degree or post graduate award. At SCQF level 8, they lead to an award with 240 credits, the same level as an HND, but are not restricted to HNDS and are work-based. This is a Challenge Fund process, which is open to Further and Higher Education (FE/HE) institutions operating in Scotland who would be eligible for SFC Core Funding. Applications are invited from colleges as sole/lead bidders for framework at SCQF level 8, and with a lead University partner for frameworks at SCQF level 10 and/or 11.",
