There is no comparison between a degree and an NVQ level 3. Level 3 is very basic and a practical qualification. What is the NVQ level 3 qualification you are comparing the degree to?

Without knowing the actual job you are going for I would say the degree is a higher qualification but is it the correct qualitfication for the job? The NVQ they are asking for may be slightly different field.

many thanks for your reply,

the job I am applying for is in the field of foreign trade. I couldn't find any nvq equivalent for this field so I a bit confused.
