Easy ECVET

Description

"The ECVET technical framework allows the recognition of learning outcomes in many and varied cases, particularly in the case of the European mobility of apprentices or dual system’s trainees. The CCCA BTP has been using it for several years and wishes to extend its scope of application in its European mobility actions. To this end, it wishes to conduct the Easy ECVET project transnationally in order to strengthen the formal recognition of learning outcomes in other European countries, and that it be integrated into the processes of validation of competences that can lead to national qualifications.Due to more or less well-founded reluctances and/or to various misunderstandings, we have been able to observe that the ECVET framework is only used by a limited number of the partners with whom the CCCA BTP has been cooperating for several years. Our objective is therefore to develop, even trivialise its use, in the course of mobility of apprentices’ actions. We wish to ensure that the ECVET framework is implemented as widely as possible until it can be taken into account in the certification of training path in the various countries concerned.Five vocational and educational training organisations or centers from five different countries (Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France and Spain) will be involved in this project. They have been chosen on the basis of their reliability, seriousness and motivation. Each of them has a particular interest in ECVET either because they have already implemented it and wish to go further, or because they wish to implement it and need the help from more experienced organisations.This mixture of experience and novitiate seems to us to be conducive to the quality of a common reflection. This project will be carried out over a period of three years and will be punctuated by the alternation of six transnational meetings (two per year) and two learning activities.- The transnational meetings are intended to be the ""think tank"" (analysis of practices, exploration of other contexts, training engineering) of the project and to support the steering committee, which will be responsible for producing technical guides and recommendations. Each country will mobilise two participants, for a total of ten people.- The learning activities will rather be ""exchange of practices and production workshops"" (pedagogical engineering, production of tools and protocols) in which two participants per country (pedagogical staff of the training institutions concerned) will collaborate. The 2 usual referents of each partner will also take part. That is to say 20 people for each activity.These two working groups will produce, in close collaboration and synergy, protocols and tools necessary for carrying out ECVET assessments.The aim is not to model a single procedure, but to facilitate the implementation of the ECVET framework, based on a common understanding and co-constructed arrangements.In a more operational phase that will follow, these supports will be tested during mobility actions that will be carried out during the last fifteen months of the Easy ECVET project, to test the reliability of these tools in the field and to improve them if necessary. Apprentices or trainees and company tutors will also ultimately benefit from the project.An ECVET expert will intervene at the very beginning of the project to give or give back to all the partners the same degree of information and answer their questions. He or she may be mobilised during the project if needed.Each partner will be responsible for relaying the decisions taken and the work to be carried out in its country. They will supervise the work, lead the educational teams mobilised and ensure the implementation of mobility actions which will allow the tools and protocols produced to be tested. Confrontations between participants from different countries will promote a mutual understanding of their different national contexts in order to facilitate collaboration.The production of appropriate guides, materials and recommendations, as well as their implementation in the field, should enhance the skills of the teaching teams in transnational evaluation issues and disinhibit the use of the ECVET framework in the context of apprentice mobility.Beyond the project, we aim to develop our partnership and our bilateral links with all our European partners, to contribute to the dissemination of the ECVET system and to set up or strengthen internationalisation strategies within our organisations.The state of mind of the project can be summarised as follows: ""confront in order to understand, compare in order to question, collaborate in order to co-construct, cooperate in order to implement""."
