The new function is accessed by clicking on the “Search for Comparisons” button on the home page of International Comparisons and enables users to select a country from a drop-down menu.  Users can then select a qualification and discover the comparable level in the UK.

“This is something that users have been asking for since we launched the re-design” commented Ian Bassett, Head of Commercial Group, “and this development will mean that Users will be able to find comparability information more quickly.”

“The feedback we have received so far has been very encouraging and usage of the databases has also increased.  The number of users logging into the databases is about 10% up on this time last year and we have noticed a particular increase since we launched the redesigned product.”
