This dataset covers vocational qualifications starting 2012 to present for England.
It is updated every quarter.
In the dataset, the number of certificates issued are rounded to the nearest 5 and values less than 5 appear as Fewer than 5 to preserve confidentiality (and a 0 represents no certificates).
Where a qualification has been owned by more than one awarding organisation at different points in time, a separate row is given for each organisation.
