Therefore, when you want to check whether a qualification is a national qualification, you need to check whether there is a legal basis and whether the agency that manages and operates the qualification system is a national administrative agency, in other words, the agency issuing the qualification is an administrative agency. As for national qualifications, there are cases in which competent ministries do not conduct qualification tests, and related tasks are entrusted to affiliated organizations or related associations, so the period for conducting qualification tests and certificate management and issuance institutions are often different. 국가 자격증 종류

For example, a driver’s license, which is one of the most popular qualifications, is a national qualification because it is issued by the head of the Metropolitan Police Agency in accordance with the Road Traffic Act. The actual driving test is conducted at the driver’s license test center of the Korea Road Traffic Authority, but the driver’s license is issued in the name of the Metropolitan Police Agency, such as the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency or the Gyeonggi Provincial Police Agency. 좋은뉴스

Differences from nationally recognized qualifications
The most confused qualification with the national qualification is the national accredited qualification. The exact name of the national accredited qualification is the national accredited private qualification. Among private qualifications that are created, managed, and operated by the private sector, that is, individuals, corporations, organizations, etc. Therefore, the essence of nationally recognized qualifications is private qualifications, and unlike national qualifications, there is no need to change the law to create, change, or abolish qualifications, so the qualifications system can be changed more easily or the qualifications can be lost.

Therefore, obtaining a national qualification is safer, and in general, holders of national qualifications are given preferential treatment in more places. There are also certifications that are preferential).

In particular, there are many certifications that have a strong character of a license that must be obtained in order to perform certain acts, such as a driver’s license must be obtained to drive. For example, national qualifications such as lawyers, doctors, tax accountants, and certified public accountants are license-like qualifications that must be obtained in order to do the work.
