According to information, colleges ranked lower than tertiary institutions in post-secondary levels of education (fifth) and possibly a class above the Liberal Studies Centers for their cooperation with foreign universities . By the way the draft law, which is still in consultation, set all the space outside the formal education system. That is, the post-secondary education consists of initial and continuing vocational training and formal and adult education (IEK KEK, post-secondary Education Centres, Colleges etc).
Executive agencies in the new system will be:
a) The National Accreditation Centre (EKEPIS), which has the power of certification / licensing education structures (institutions, trainers).
b) The Agency accreditation (an evolution of the EPBD ), which would assume responsibility for the Qualifications Framework and the recognition / accreditation of qualifications.
c) The National Centre for Vocational Guidance in an advisory capacity.
