From words to practice in the use of learning outcomes

Bulgarian stakeholders discuss learning outcomes in initial vocational education at a national online workshop.

On May 13, 2025, Mariya Dzhengozova (3s) led a national online workshop as part of Cedefop’s project The Shift to Learning Outcomes: Rhetoric or Reality? (2023–2025). The event gathered key Bulgarian stake­hol­ders in voca­tio­nal education and training (VET), including repre­sen­ta­ti­ves from public insti­tu­ti­ons, training providers, teachers, and employer orga­ni­sa­ti­ons. Participants discussed national findings on the imple­men­ta­ti­on of learning outcomes in initial VET, explored factors influen­cing their effective use, and shared insights that will feed into Bulgaria’s synthesis report, to be published by Cedefop following the project’s conclusion.
