Calificar es apreciar o determinar las cualidades o circunstancias de alguien o de algo. Por su parte, cualificar es atribuir condiciones a alguien para desempeñar un trabajo.
Cuando se califica a una persona se están definiendo sus cualidades, mientras que cuando se cualifica a una persona se le están impartiendo conocimientos para la práctica de un ejercicio concreto.
Ejemplo:
•«El líder lo cualificó de racista».
• Es uno de los científicos más calificados de Europa.

If you are referring to the adjectives «calificado and cualificado» they mean the same thing, BUT the verbs «calificar and cualificar» are a whole different story, and i bet nobody (except the RAE linguists) knows the difference
