According to the National Credit Framework (NCrF), after obtaining a Bachelor's Degree (Honours/Research/Engineering) of programme duration four years, the credit level earned is:

Under the National Credit Framework, a four-year Bachelor's Degree with Honours, Research or Engineering corresponds to credit level 6.

The framework aligns years of study with rising credit levels from school to doctorate.

A level of 5.5 corresponds to an earlier stage, such as a two-year diploma.

A level of 6.5 is reached with a master's degree following a three-year bachelor's.

A level of 7 aligns with a master's after a four-year engineering degree.

The framework lets learners accumulate and transfer credits through the Academic Bank of Credits.
