DESCRIPTION:This presentation will explore the metaphors used to describe 
 general qualifications: their basis\, meaning and the effect they might ha
 ve in ‘the real world’. In particular\, the notion of a ‘market plac
 e’ for qualifications will be analysed\, including the supply and demand
  side factors\, the impact and desirability of its deregulation\, the risk
 s and benefits inherent in such an approach\, and how\, and by how much\, 
 such a market should be regulated.
