From credit systems to permeability in education and training 08/04/2010 The need for permeability in education and training results from the necessity to cope with demographic changes, the complexity of career changes and the shift to a knowledge or service society model. Starting from an analysis of credit systems in use in vocational education and training and in higher education, a two-year Cedefop study aims to provide a structured and critical overview of existing devices, tools and arrangements to support permeability and progression. It will, in particular, focus on institutional settings, governance patterns, individualisation and the role of qualifications. In addition to desk research and experts’ interviews, the study will build on case studies of existing mechanisms. It will also provide case studies concerning a selection of EQF level 5 qualifications which represent transition points in learners’ pathways. This study will cover the 32 countries taking part in the Education and Training 2020 cooperation. For further information, please contact: Isabelle Le Mouillour ([email protected] )
