National Qualifications at Edinburgh College
National Qualifications (NQs) cover a broad range of subjects to suit your skills and interests. Passing a NQ will prepare you for entry into NC, HNC and HND programmes.
We offer these courses at various levels, from National 5 to Advanced Higher Qualifications. They are delivered weekly, during the day and in the evening. Some courses have introduced hybrid learning, with a mixture of online and face-to-face lectures to provide flexibility in learning. All the Modern Languages courses are delivered fully online in digital classrooms using Microsoft Teams.
NQ courses commence in August and will be provisionally open for applications in April for candidates who meet the eligibility criteria.
