The SQFCGF is a meta-framework which eases the recognition of all vocational and academic education and training in the Coast Guard field. While on the one hand it facilitates the comparison of qualifications among EU Coast Guard functions Organisations and Agencies, on the other hand it has positive effects on interoperability and joint initiatives, as well as being a support for MMO operations. Its implementation is a voluntary but desirable process which will facilitate the development of the European Coast Guard Functions Training Network. This tool completes the analysis of the spectrum of the 11 Coast Guard Functions, in complementarity with the one for Border Guarding developed by Frontex (item Frontex 23) .
