Why do we need VQ Day?

Vocational courses teach vital skills, but for too long they have gone without the national public recognition they deserve. VQ day focuses on the millions of people who gain vocational qualifications every year, and the people who help them do it.

Something to celebrate

The second national VQ Day took place on 24 June 2009. The day was a brilliant celebration of the people who gain vocational qualifications every year. Showcase events took place in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland and over 120 events were held in schools and colleges across the UK.

With a little help from our friends

VQ Day is led by Edge in conjunction with the vocational qualifications community. A massive thank-you to everyone who helped us to make VQ Day 2009 a success, and we look forward to working with you on VQ Day 2010!
