Developing Qualifications Frameworks in EU Partner Countries: Modernising Education and Training

by Jean-Marc Castejon (Editor), Borhene Chakroun (Editor), Mike Coles (Editor)

Qualifications systems are useful tools for modernising education and training. This publication focuses on the reality of policy development in different countries. After reminding the reader that education and training systems, and therefore qualifications systems, are always closely integrated with a country’s social and cultural priorities, this volume shows that there is evidence from a range of countries that learning can be enhanced by developing the recognition of learning through qualifications and by defining qualifications levels.
