Quality and ECVET
ECVET supports quality in mobility. However, to ensure continuous improvement, the use of ECVET for geographical mobility must also be underpinned by quality assurance (QA) procedures. EQAVET (European quality assurance in VET) provides support for structuring these procedures.
EQAVET quality circle
The four-step procedure of the EQAVET quality circle (planning – implementation – evaluation – review) can be applied to specific mobility experience and to ECVET partnerships. More...
Reviewing the process and results of each individual mobility
After completion of the formal elements of the mobility process, partners can benefit from reflecting on the entire process in order to identify any necessary adaptations. For example, it should be considered whether the learning outcomes agreed for the mobility phase were appropriate or whether the documentation of the assessment abroad provides sufficient evidence for recognition. Evaluation is of particular importance in those cases were recognition was not possible as planned but also in other cases collection of feedback is recommended to identify areas for improvement. More...
Validation and recognition take place when the learner returns to the home organisation and have to be carried out according to the agreements laid down in the Learning Agreement.
For validating learning outcomes achieved abroad the person in charge in the home organisation takes note of the documentation of the learning outcomes assessed at the host organisation and compares this with what has been agreed in the Learning Agreement. More...
Following completion of the mobility period, the competent institution in the home country verifies whether all formal requirements, as well as the stipulations stated in the LA, have been met.
Thus, learners’ credit is validated and eventually recognised. More...
During the mobility phase (or at the end of it), the learning outcomes achieved abroad are identified by the assessor in the host country. Assessment methods and procedures are used according to the agreements laid down in the LA and the assessed learning outcomes are documented as agreed before the start of the mobility period (for example, by using the ‘Europass Mobility’). More...
Once the learning process is complete, the learner must demonstrate achievement of the required learning outcomes in an assessment process. More...
In line with specifications in the MoU and the LA, mobile learners acquire related knowledge, skills and competence during their stay abroad. Regardless of whether they are in a VET school or in a company, the learning activities that learners participate in must enable them to acquire the expected learning outcomes. More...
