The Erasmus+ project EXPECT collects examples of good practice on Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in VET. The project partners from seven EU countries exchange their practices in Peer Learning Activities (PLAs).

The recently published report „The European Credit System for Vocational Education and Training“ looks back at the ECVET development and implementation process. It was written by Karin Luomi-Messerer and Monika Auzinger.

The partners of the TRANSVAL-EU project (3s is also involved) are conducting a short survey on innovative tools, methods and approaches for the validation of transversal skills in validation and guidance practice in Europe. We would be very grateful if many experts would participate in the survey!

In the framework of the Erasmus+ project “EXPECT”, the third PLA on the implementation of the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) in European vocational education and training took place on 31 May with the participation of 3s. This time the focus was on Spain.

On 12.1.2021, an Online Peer Learning Activity (PLA) took place on the Erasmus+ project EXPECT which examines the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in European VET in 7 EU countries. This time, 3s presented examples from Austrian VET.

On 12 January 2021, 3s (Tanja Bacher and Sabine Schwenk) and invited experts will present approaches and examples of the Austrian implementation of Education for Sustainable Development in the field of VET as part of the Erasmus+ project “EXPECT – Exchange of Practices in Education for Climate Targets”.

A recent Cedefop workshop, held virtually on 26 and 27 November, discussed the challenges and opportunities facing European vocational education and training (VET) – with active contributions from the 3s team.

How can learning outcomes be delivered, acquired and assessed in digital VET? The 4th international ECVET (European Credit System for Vocational Education and Training) conference, held as a ZOOM conference on 3.12.2020, dealt with these questions.

Cedefop (European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training) invites leading experts to submit papers for a reference publication on monitoring and evaluation of lifelong guidance systems and services for adults in a lifelong learning perspective. Abstract and CV are due by 31 December 2020.
