Book Description
"The Recommendation 2009/C 155/01, of 18 June 2009, of the European Parliament and of the Council, establishes a European Quality Assurance Reference Framework for Vocational Education and Training. This framework is one of the European reference tools to facilitate European cooperation in the field of vocational education and training (VET). It describes the cycle of the quality of VET in four phases (planning, implementation, evaluation ando review). For each phase of the cycle (inspired by the Deming quality improvement cycle) some descriptors are proposed to be applied at system level and at VET provider level. It also proposes indicators for measuring the performance of a particular system or an individual training institution and to support review and improvement of both entire systems and individual training. The Recommendation, in compliance with the principle of subsidiarity, encourages the European Commission and the Member States to participate actively in the development of a European Quality Assurance Reference Framework network (the EQAVET network). This network is in charge of following the framework implementation process throughout the Member States, and of supporting them, if necessary, in the development of the policy of quality improvement for VET at both regional and national level."--Editor.
