News update from EQAVET

The EQAVET Peer Review processes and Peer Learning Activities are progressing. We are using the summer for a review and outlook.

The EQAVET Secretariat recently published a news­let­ter in which inte­re­sted parties can get an overview of all the acti­vi­ties of the past year, including

  • The Annual Network Meeting in Brussels in June, where Monika Auzinger led a workshop and gave a pre­sen­ta­ti­on on the topics discussed in the PLA for democracy education
  • The EQAVET Peer-Learning-Activity (PLA) on Quality assuring education for demo­cra­tic citi­zen­ship in VET (with Monika Auzinger)
  • The EQAVET Peer Learning Activity (PLA) on Quality Assurance of digital tools and delivery in VET

The news­let­ter also presents an outlook on the autumn activities:

  • Face-to-face Peer Review on gover­nan­ce and quality culture at VET insti­tu­ti­ons  (September in Latvia, with Monika Auzinger for sup­port­ing the Peer Review as member of the EQAVET Secretariat)
  • Online Peer Review on Implementation of EQAVET at VET providers level (October, Bulgaria)
