Problems of the TRANS-FINECVET project refer to development of the European Credit system for Vocational Education and Training (ECVET) in the European Union and to implementation of curriculum solutions developed with consideration of EQF/NQF requirements and descriptors describing learning outcomes (knowledge, skills and competences). Due to the above conditions, the project partnership has been established and it has included three EU countries (Poland, Finland, Spain), the key aim of which shall be constituted by transfer of European good practice at practical implementation of the ECVET approach, as well as development and improvement of quality of professional qualifications in occupations important for the European labour market, i.e. Child Care Worker and Health Care Assistant acquired in formal and non-formal education. Innovative character of the project shall be manifested, inter alia, in development of a new ICT tool to support processes of creation, update and evaluation of descriptions of qualifications and units of learning outcomes, with regard to development and improvement of quality of a curriculum offer in the above-mentioned occupations belonging to the group 5311 and 5321 in the ISCO-08. The project assumes preparation and more efficient use of ICT tools and open educational resources, as well as achievement of coherence between the European and national tools concerning recognisability of professional qualifications and competences. Project measures and outcomes are directed to a broad group of recipients, including teachers and trainers in the both professions. Methodologists, careers advisers, research institutions, training institutions, adult 50+, women getting back on the labour market, teachers are threats of the lose the job. This project and its outcomes correspond with detailed objectives of the Erasmus+ Programme: improvement of quality, innovativeness and internationalisation of educational institutions, modernisation of educational systems through exchange of good practice and outcomes, as well as use of European tools facilitating recognition and transfer of qualifications on the sector of vocational education and training. Measures related to preparation of the project outcomes shall include i.a. execution of international comparative research of requirements of standards of professional competences for two occupations that are subject to transfer and preparation of a report and recommendations directed to target groups (output O1); development of methodical material concerning transfer of good practice from Finland to other partner countries within the scope of implementing the ECVET approach in the practice of vocational education and training (output O2); comparison of this solution with solutions functioning in Poland and Spain in order to support recommendations to enhance national initiatives related to ECVET (output O3); execution of comparative research of curriculum offers functioning on the market for two occupations in order to identify learning outcomes that are common and differentiating particular partner countries (output O4); development of a base of descriptions of qualifications and units of learning outcomes for the above-mentioned occupations according to the methodology adopted in the partnership and constituting the source of valid knowledge about qualification requirements for future employees in these occupations (output O5). The above-mentioned outcomes shall constitute information resource for a developed interactive ICT tool applied, inter alia, to update and evaluate a catalogue of learning outcomes identified in the project and appropriate for the occupations: Child Care Worker and Health Care Assistant (output 6), which may be used for cyclical verification of the quality of vocational education and training curricula. As dissemination measures, it is planned, among others, to organize video-conference seminars, in each partner country, international conference summing up project implementation, multilingual book and the project website together with shared open educational resources (OER), access to the ICT tool and the database. Assessment covered all functional modules of the tool: • Form for registration of institutions and experts („Participation”) • Competences catalogue • Competences tests • Institutions catalogue • Experts catalogue • Glossary of terms • Contact information. Application was again made available on a Web server in ITeE - PIB at: http: http://trans-finecvet.eu/service/en/. Potential long-term benefits of the project include, inter alia, internationalisation of the activities of the project partners, educational institutions, development of national training based on learning outcomes and ECVET approach, increased capacity of employment for persons with confirmed qualifications in the above-mentioned occupations taught in the mode of formal and non-formal education.
