    Funder Contribution: 173,866 EUR

    "<< Background >>The project idea of EU-CERT directly relates to four core aspects of EU policy (a) ""Recognition of skills and qualifications"" (https://ec.europa.eu/education/policies/european-policy-cooperation/development-skills_en), (b) ""EU initiatives on transparency and recognition of skills and qualifications"", (c) the “Reinforcing the development of key competences” which is in line with the Council (d) “Recommendation on key competences for lifelong learning”. Apart from these research- based needs recommendations by several authorities, each of the partners express their own needs to enhance practitioners practice and to make high quality visible and transparent in adult education. It is important to show relevance, effectiveness, create transparency based on transparent and clear processes to ensure that high quality results from adult education are usable in the future. In adult education it is crucial to get credibility. Adult education providers see a challenge in signalling their own high quality of workIn our needs analysis with 200 trainers from adult education and at 50 adult education providers, which we conducted before this aplication in winter 2020 many users (87%) complain about intransparency and weak quality of European adult education project results which cannot be transferred into daily adult education practice. Here the EU-CERT project comes into action and tries to enhance quality in adult education and helps to ensure that adult education providers are able to find high quality adult education results which can be used in practice and which base on excellent adult education projects. While the need of adult education trainers is to know exactly how he has to adapt his teaching method in view of better results for all learners, they have also the challenge to find (a) adequate high-quality materials and distinguish them from those of lower quality and (b) to stay up to date with the rapidly changing environment, society and economy. Here EU-CERT steps is and shows via accreditation processes and certificates, excellent ways of work. Moreover, there is the need of adult education providers to signal on the adult education market that their own activities and measures are of high quality to attract interest of costumers / adult learners. Also, in this aspect the certification and accreditation system of EU-CERT is an excellent tool and supports these tasks.The partnership applies for a grant combine all expertise of the partners to a new framework. A project EU-CERT is needed to profit from each-others’ knowledge and experience to improve weaknesses in the field of recognition and use of high quality results from EU projects in adult education.<< Objectives >>One of the core ideas od EU-CERT is to promote adult education results created within ERASMUS+ projects and to ensure high quality in adult education by an accreditation based on transparent criteria. Typically, there is no certification or accreditation of those.The aim of EU-CERT is to develop a mechanism to monitor the effectiveness of adult education projects via an accreditation system which is based on clear criteria and a solid accreditation procedure and to provide accreditations and certificates for adult education, which can be used as proof of high or excellent quality. The goal of the EU-CERT accreditation is to ensure that institutions of adult education meet acceptable levels of quality. EU-CERT accreditation aims to determine if an institution or adult education provider meets or exceeds minimum standards of quality.In addition to that, it helps adult learners to determine acceptable institutions or adult education providers for enrolment.It also offers the chance to assist adult educators in determining acceptability of transfer credits.With regard to employers EU-CERT aims to determine the validity of adult education programs and whether a person is qualified.Moreover, the EU-CERT idea enables graduates to sit for certification examinations.With EU-CERT we also create goals for institutional self-improvement in adult education as well as improvements with regard to adult education projects fostered by the EU.Due to the fact that EU-CERT is a adult education specific approach, it aims to provide a self-regulatory alternative for state oversight functions concerning adult education.This will help to support common shared values in adult education and is the basis for civic engagement which is fostered by excellent adult education approaches. Moreover, it fosters the participation of European adult educator in a high-quality adult education network with ensured standards. An accreditation system for projects which run under adult education promotes the idea of ERAMUS+ and offers another way of transparancy and visibility in Europe. All seniors and all European citizens get a possibility to find excellent adult education resources via the accreditation information and standards. This is the crucial basis for enhancing quality assurance in adult education. To involve all generations in education is an important task in Europe and adult education plays a crucial role in this field. Accreditation is the determination and demonstration of competence. The body applying for accreditation defines the scope within which its competence is assessed. Accreditation is granted for the scope in which the applicant's competence is demonstrated. The goal of accreditation is to demonstrate the reliability of the results and/or the credibility of the certificates issued by the body. Certification distinguishes between three main sectors: certification of systems, products and personnel. The purpose of certification is to demonstrate that specified requirements are met. The requirements are usually based on criteria and/or international standards.The aim is to work with transparent procedures and criteria like (a) The methods are validated and appropriate, (b) There is use of suitable equipment. (c) Learning Assessments, tests and teaching are made in a traceable manner and according to transparent quality standards, (c) Adequate quality assurance and supervision, (d) Regular participation in internal or external comparisons, (e) Fit to the needs of adult education, (f) addressing up to date needs of the learners, society and economy.<< Implementation >>In EU-CERT we will address adult education trainers and adult education providers as well as EU project results in the field of adult education. We will create a network and provide information on the EU-CERT accredition and certification approach. While implementing this network, we create the accredition and certification criteria and implement the databases, the programming and the step-by step approaches and processes for the accredition of the adult education providers. This means we have to make the criteria transparent and have to desribe and explain the processes od accredition. We will collect statements of interest, create a membership system and run the accredition based on an online submission of information and a check via at least two evaluators. This is followed by the implementation of the the accredition feedback and the accredition overview. With regard to the certification of courses, project results from EU project, we have to implement a collecting system of project results to check the quality according to the created criteria and standards for quality of adult education tools and results designed within the project EU-CERT. To certify the adult trainers, we need a third set of criteria with are speficly looking at pedagogical and didactic skills of the trainers, but also on their use of digital media which is besoming more important these times (Corona situation etc.). In the project we will implement the structures of the EU-CERT the step-by-step approaches for the three fields of action (adult education trainers, adult education providers, EU project results) but also the programming of the tool, the design of the certificates and the accredition charter, the development of policy recommandations and the laymans´ report. To ensure that the implementation is sustainable and easy to follow and that the target group possess all cor einformation we create a handbook for accreditaion and certification which will be implemented via publishing as a OER book as well as via the project website and the EU-CERT accredition platform.The EU-CERT tool can be used for European project to have a common standard on European level.It can be adapted to national standards and offers benefit for adult education providers in different regions.Comparing the quality of approaches is easier with criteria and EU-CERT helps to use these criteria and certification and accreditation processes on all educational levels:(1) Local level:Local adult education providers can use the certificates for the learner and ensure innovative and quality assured documentation for the measures.(2) Regional level:For learners it will become easier to distinguish the quality of different adult education providers and governmental institution can also focus easier on high quality education.(3) National level:The accreditation ensures a criteria-based way to compare adult education approaches and the EU-CERT tool offers the opportunity to get in contact with best practice and high qualityresults of educational projects.(4) European level:EU-CERT ensures a common European approach on quality assurance of project results and adult education. Certificates can be compared on a European level while officialEuropean regulations like the existing EC-VET and ECTS are also taken into account.<< Results >>The EU-CERT project results are:(a) the online EU-CERT accreditation and certification tool for (1) accreditation of project results, (2) for accreditation of adult education measures, (3) for accreditation of adult education providers- EU-CERT Accreditation process for adult education providers- EU-CERT Certification process for adult trainers- EU-CERT Certification process for EU project results in the field of adult education- EU-CERT Certificates and Accreditation Charter(b) EU-CERT Network for adult education(c) the description of the accreditation and certification processes(d) the development and description of the EU-CERT accreditation criteria and the development and description of the EU-CERT certification criteria- 3 EU-CERT Criteria setting for the three core target groups of the project (adult education trainers, adult education providers, EU project results) (e) research report on accreditation and certification in Europe(f) more than 100 accredited measures, projects and adult education providers in a database with information on the projects, tools, measures and adequate links and contacts(g) best practice insights by videos(h) handbooks on the use of the online EU-CERT tool and the accreditation and certification processes(i) an EU-CERT Policy Paper with recommendations to adult education, policy makers and teachers(j) an EU-CERT Layman´s report with recommendations to a broad audience(k) the EU-CERT research results from a survey on the use of the online tool and the benefits of accreditation(l) the EU-CERT research reports on the project itsself(m) the EU-CERT website with information on the project and links to the tool and the platform(n) the EU-CERT dissemination material (flyer, poster, leadlets, videos, social-media, etc.)- EU-CERT flyers and leaflets- EU-CERT posters- EU-CERT website- EU-CERT social media accounts- EU-CERT newsletter- EU-CERT direct contact guide- EU-CERT videos- EU-CERT presentations- EU-CERT publications and newspaper articles- EU-CERT information days material"
