It’s time to sign up for the training course “Digital curricular stories for all. Tools and guidelines for adult educators”, organised by the two European projects ENKDIST and KVALUES in Rome, from the 21st to the 23rd of October 2014.
A Slice of Life - New ways of using digital storytelling for lifelong learning
The focus group on the validation of competences acquired in formal and non-formal settings was the first activity programmed in the research phase of the European Project KVALUES – Key competences: Validating Adult Learners’ eDucational ExperienceS.
The first six months of activities for the European Project KVALUES – Key competences: Validating Adult Learners’ eDucational ExperienceS are ending with the presentation of the research results made by each partner and coordinated by Luigi Sturzo Institute.
Can you describe, shortly, a mapping of existing practices in Europe for the validation of non-formal and informal skills, particularly in reference to the projects already developed in Europe?
Both within the countries participating in the project and in the other countries, the situation is very diversified, presenting contexts already highly structured and running towards the systematization of the processes of recognition, validation and assessment (i.g. Estonia and the Scandinavian area), other contexts where there is a tendency to an excessive fragmentation of rules and practices (i.g. Italy and Germany), and other ones still in the phase of design and construction (i.g. Bulgaria).
