Tertiary Education – Technical, Vocational Education and Training

Tertiary Education refers to any type of education pursued beyond the high school level. This includes

diplomas, undergraduate and graduate certificates, and associate's, bachelor's, master's and doctoral

degrees and commonly referred to as postsecondary education.

The National Vocational Qualifications Framework which was developed by the Tertiary and Vocational

Education Commission (TVEC) makes provision for technical and vocational education and training in Sri

Lanka in line with the economic and social development of the country with an international standard. This

framework is consist with the national competency standards which was identified by the industry sector

stakeholders. The competency standards include relevant technical and employability competencies. The

system consist of seven NVQ levels awarded by the TVEC and University of Vocational Technology

(UNIVOTEC). Certification of 1 – 6 levels (up to diploma level) courses are carried out by the training

institutions and accredited by the TVEC. Certification at level 7 (degree level) is carried out by the

UNIVOTEC.
