Validation in enterprises
The recommendation underlines the importance of pursuing validation at the workplace and recommends to: ‘[…] promote the involvement in the development and implementation of the elements and principles referred to in points 1 to 4 of all relevant stakeholders, such as employers, trade unions, chambers of industry and commerce and skilled crafts. [Furthermore] to foster participation in this process, employers […] should promote and facilitate the identification and documentation of learning outcomes acquired at work’ (Council of EU, 2012, p. 4).
