The National Technical and Vocational Qualification Framework has levels from 1 to 6, as well as two pre-vocational levels to allow easier access to formal TVET for poor or under privileged groups who might not have sufficient formal schooling and lack of literacy and numeracy but having skills either working in different economic sector or have no works at all. Figure 1 provides an outline of the Bangladesh NTVQF.
