You can find the database here: https://lnkd.in/duvHHtMD 🇫🇷 In France, all vocational certificates and diplomas listed in the national register of professional qualifications (RNCP) can be obtained through validation of non-formal and informal learning, i.e. learning acquired outside of the formal education system. 🇱🇻 In Latvia #professionalqualification certificates are #digital. 🇳🇱 #Skillsanticipation in the Netherlands utilizes a dual approach to data collection: a top-down method, analyzing trends across the entire #jobmarket, and a bottom-up approach, targeting specific sectors and occupations. 🇵🇹 All VET programmes in Portugal lead to double certification, both educational and professional. For example, graduates can receive a diploma for completion of upper secondary education, alongside a certificate for gardening and landscaping at #EQF level 4.

📢 Don’t miss out on this exciting discussion! 📈 Evolving credentials: Credentials and qualifications reflect societal shifts, #labormarket needs, and tech advancements. 🎓 Degrees + new credentials: Traditional degrees remain vital, but new credentials complement and value diverse learning. 🛠️ Flexibility & #lifelonglearning: Learners can "stack" experiences at their own pace, fostering #inclusivity and #adaptability. 🇪🇺 EU tools & impact: What drives these changes, and how effectively do EU tools support users?

Stronger together, from Tallinn to Lisbon, from Valletta to Stockholm, from Dublin to Nicosia! 2️⃣0️⃣ 🇪🇺 Last week, the 22nd annual ReferNet plenary meeting took place at Cedefop's premises in Thessaloniki, Greece 🇬🇷. 🎉 This was a great opportunity to mark the 20th anniversary of the "Big Bang" enlargement of the EU in 2004, and to reflect on the years since those countries, but also Bulgaria, Romania, and Croatia, joined the Union. The meeting was filled with inspiring discussions on the: ▶️future of vocational education and training (#VET); ▶️policy developments on VET, #skills, and #qualifications; ▶️outcomes of work done so far and results achieved; ▶️collaboration and partnership. Also, newcomers were welcomed, and ReferNet's future work got a strong impulse. 🙏A huge thank you to all of our #ReferNet partners and their hard work on #VET! #Cedefop50

You can find the database here: https://lnkd.in/dMBpyAq2 🇨🇿 All VET programmes in Czechia provide not only occupation-specific #training, but also general subjects such as maths or languages. 🇩🇰 In Denmark, #continuingVET for adults aged 25+ is part of the formal education system, which is not the case in most other EU countries. 🇬🇷 In 2022, Greece introduced new vocational training schools focused on #highdemandprofessions. These programmes allow graduates of compulsory education to gain job-specific skills and earn their first #VETqualification within two years. 🇷🇴 In Romania, the #dualVET system extends beyond secondary education (such as high school) into tertiary levels (higher education), integrating hands-on training with higher education pathways. 🇸🇰 In Slovakia, over 77% of VET graduates were enrolled in programmes offering direct pathways to higher education. #VETinEurope #Cedefop50
