English term or phrase: HEF Level of Qualification
Hola a todxs:

Estoy traduciendo a español de España un expediente académico de la Universidad de Middlesex y, en el encabezado del documento donde figuran los datos del estudiante, aparece el apartado"HEF Level of Qualification: Certificate".

Más adelante, figura un cuadro denominado "Levels" donde se indica lo siguiente:

"Modules at Middlesex University are assessed at the following levels (aparece a continuación una tabla con las siguientes columnas):

Middlesex University level - Description - National Qualifications Framework - FE/HE Level"

En la columna "Description" aparece "Certificate level", que es el nivel que se indica en el apartado donde me surge la duda.

Si consulto el "National Qualifications Framework" no veo el término "HEF" por ningún lado y por lo que he podido comprobar, "FE/HE Level" se identifica con el nivel de educación (que no sé si es lo mismo).

Lamento que el contexto sea tan confuso, pero el término en sí está aislado y he preferido facilitaros toda esta información que creo que puede orientarnos.

Muchas gracias por vuestra ayuda.

Context: FE/HE Level (further education/higher education)
Aparece en la descripción de los niveles de formación de una universidad británica. Es el encabezado de una de las columnas. Los otros son: Middlesex University Level - Description - National Qualifications Framework

Estudios universitarios (Higher Education)/Educación técnico vocacional (Further Education)
Explanation: Further education (often abbreviated "FE") is post-secondary, education (in addition to that received at secondary school), that is distinct from the education offered in universities. It may be at the same level, at a higher level, or at a lower level than secondary education, anything from basic training to Higher National Diploma or Foundation Degree. The term is mainly used in connection with education in the United Kingdom.

A distinction is usually made between FE and higher education ("HE") which is education at a higher level than secondary school, usually provided in distinct institutions such as universities. FE in the United Kingdom therefore includes education for people over 16, usually excluding universities. It is primarily taught in FE colleges.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Further_education

Another option: FE = Further Education (Estudios de postgrado) / HE = Higher Education (Estudios Superiores)
