Image is a fan diagram of the New Zealand Qualifications and Credentials Framework which is abbreviated to NZQCF.
The fan is split into ten vertical sections, which are separated with white lines. Each section represents a level on the framework, with Level 1 on the left and Level 10 on the right. Micro-credentials have their own stripe underneath these sections.
The NZQCF logo is in a white semicircle at the bottom in the middle. The background is dark teal. The titles of each level are light blue. The contents of each level are teal, with the blank space a different shade of teal. In a dark teal stripe above the semicircle and below the ten segments, is Micro-credential/Pūkenga-Whāiti.
