They covered, among other things, how to access guidance services; how to make full use of knowledge, skills and competences, and how to get them recognised; how to participate in training, and how to find rewarding employment. This publication collects findings from these study visits, and features 29 successful initiatives from all over Europe. http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21318.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21373.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Mon, 29 Apr 2013 00:00:00 GMT Cedefop’s new publication provides a statistical overview of vocational education and training and lifelong learning in European countries. Data are based on international statistics enabling comparisons of countries and statistical averages for the European Union. This report, a first result of a continuing process, aims to be a valuable tool, which can be used in various ways and adds user-friendly evidence for many purposes. It should help policy-makers and researchers and ease access to the information available. http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21373.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21360.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Wed, 24 Apr 2013 00:00:00 GMT http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21360.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21365.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Wed, 24 Apr 2013 00:00:00 GMT http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21365.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21313.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Tue, 16 Apr 2013 00:00:00 GMT Cedefop has long tracked the changing roles and professional development of teachers and trainers in vocational education and training. In this publication, it analyses nineteen Member State initiatives which aim to set out competence requirements for trainers in adult learning and continuing training. The analysis, which also covers validation of non-formal and informal learning, forms the basis of a proposed emerging competence profile for trainers. The publication contributes to the work of the thematic working group on the professional development of trainers in vocational education and training, which the European Commission set up in 2012 and jointly coordinates with Cedefop. http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21313.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21311.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Thu, 11 Apr 2013 00:00:00 GMT Cedefop’s fourth annual report on developments in national qualification frameworks (NQFs) in Europe confirms that these frameworks are considered a key way of making qualifications easier to understand and compare within and between countries. It has also found that such frameworks are increasingly used to encourage changes in education and training. For instance, during 2012 some National Qualifications Frameworks opened up to include qualifications awarded outside the formal public system. http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21311.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21293.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Thu, 04 Apr 2013 00:00:00 GMT http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21293.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21183.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:00:00 GMT http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21183.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21204.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:00:00 GMT http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21204.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21142.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:00:00 GMT http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21142.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21091.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a Thu, 21 Feb 2013 00:00:00 GMT http://www.cedefop.europa.eu:80/EN/publications/21091.aspx?WT.rss_ev=a
