CALOHEA Regional Subject-Specific Reference Frameworks as Tools for Promoting Recognition and Internationalisation
One of the tools created by the CALOHEA Erasmus+ project participants to facilitate the recognition of degrees and study periods within the ASEAN region and between the ASEAN region and other world regions is the Regional Subject-Specific Reference Frameworks.
A Qualifications Framework is a structure that allows us to classify different qualifications in a geographical area covered by the framework and establish broad equivalence of qualifications (eg, first cycle of higher education/undergraduate, etc.) across the region. This is achieved by describing what a learner will have developed in terms of knowledge, skills, attitudes, competences, etc., upon successfully completing a particular level of studies.
Regional Qualifications Reference Frameworks aim to establish broad equivalence among qualifications offered in more than one country. These frameworks are intended to be used as Reference Documents, facilitating recognition but not overruling National regulations or National Qualifications Frameworks. The ASEAN Qualifications Reference Framework (AQRF) and the European Qualifications Framework (EQF) are two good examples.
CALOHEA Subject-Specific Qualifications Reference Frameworks facilitate recognition by allowing us to:
- Clearly see which key dimensions must be addressed by each program in the subject area;
- Establish equivalence between qualifications offered in different countries in terms of their level, regardless of how the qualifications are referred to in each country;
- Express specialization of a particular program in terms of the sub-dimensions addressed;
- Compare the level of achievement aimed at for each of the sub-dimensions – in terms of knowledge, skills, or responsibilities;
- Compare shorter periods of study as well – periods during which only particular types of knowledge, specific skills, or capacity to perform particular responsibilities can be developed.
CALOHEA Regional Subject-Specific Qualifications Reference Frameworks state in detail what knowledge, skills, attitudes, competences, etc., are expected from graduates of ARQF Level 6 degrees in Civil Engineering, Medicine, and Teacher Education. This allows recognition across all the countries involved in developing the Frameworks.

Looking for Examples of Authentic Assessment Tasks in Civil Engineering, Medicine, or Teacher Education?
Check out the CALOHEA Compilations of Inspirational Examples prepared specifically for ASEAN higher education institutions.
While authentic assessment is key to preparing industry-ready graduates and ensuring students achieve complex learning outcomes, many academics believe that authentic assessment is very difficult, time-consuming, and expensive to implement.
To demonstrate that this is not necessarily the case, CALOHEA experts from seven ASEAN countries have created a compilation of Inspirational Examples. These range from more online options to those that every academic can easily introduce into their course, regardless of class size and financial limitations.
Visit the CALOHEA website to consult or download the three compilations: one for Medicine, one for Teacher Education, and one for Civil Engineering: https://calohea.org/
