Accreditation is of obvious importance for qualifications policy. Yet in all Member States it is less widespread in vocational education and training than in general or higher education. Moreover, it is not sufficiently covered by the current European-level work on quality. This publication attempts to examine some of the issues related to accreditation in VET.
| The study, Accreditation and quality assurance in vocational education and training: selected European approaches, analyses several national approaches to accreditation and draws comparisons between them. Some sectoral examples are also included. The publication paves the way for a more substantial comparative study in 2010, which will mark the tenth anniversary of Cedefop's work on quality issues in vocational education and training in cooperation with the European Commission, the Member States and social partners. |
