General

It’s goal is to identify a solution for the following problems:1. Role of VET teachers, trainers and tutors is changing: new skills are demanded because of the internationalisation of their work. 2. Increasing numbers of teachers/trainers are responsible for developing international project work and other international activities of their institutes. 3. Large part of their competence is acquired through informal and non-formal learning during of their lives/ careers. That competence is not officially recognised. 4. Teachers need more competence in this field but mostly they need a validation system recognising their existing competence and experience.
