VQA regulates post-school education and training providers and courses so that learners graduate with recognised qualifications.

Once the student completes the programme, VQA issues the qualification on request of the provider, if the provider is registered and had approval to run the course. If the learner didn't receive his or her qualification, or lost them, they may apply for a re-print or copy of the qualification from VQA.


This page only applies to Vanuatu providers. Overseas providers wishing to register in Vanuatu are referred to  Registration of Overseas Providers.

To become a Registered PSET Provider in Vanuatu, a provider must first gain approval for Notice of Intent to Register.

The second and final step in the process is the application for initial registration. The purpose of this process is to ensure that the provider has the basic resources, the key people and the policies and procedures in place to provide quality post-school education and training. The application is judged against the Standards for Provider Registration in the Vanuatu Quality Assurance Framework.
