Validation of non-formal and informal learning

3s supported the Austrian Ministry of Education in the pre­pa­ra­ti­on of the national report on the imple­men­ta­ti­on of the Council Recommendation on the vali­da­ti­on of non-formal and informal learning.

The Recommendation of the European Council on vali­da­ti­on of non-formal and informal learning calledon EU Member States to introduce arran­ge­ments for the vali­da­ti­on of non-formal and informal learning by 2018 and to submit national reports docu­men­ting the state of imple­men­ta­ti­on of the Recommendation.

These reports were presented to the EQF Advisory Group (EQF AG), the advisory body for imple­men­ting the European Qualifications Framework. EQF AG was to be used as a platform for cons­truc­ti­ve feedback and mutual learning.

3s (Karin Luomi-Messerer) was com­mis­sio­ned by the Austrian Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research (BMBWF) to draft the Austrian report.

The report was presented to EQF AG in December 2018.
