Peer Review Extended II
Aim
The project aims at the transfer and further development of two previous projects “Peer Review in initial VET” and “Peer Review Extended” and of the European Peer Review methodology as an element of the Common Quality Assurance Framework (CQAF).
Specific aims
- To support the (further) dissemination and transfer of the European Peer Review methodology in the participating countries including the adaptation of the procedure to the needs and situations in the “new” countries (CZ, SI, TR);
- To transfer the European Peer Review methodology to continuing VET;
- To improve and to enhance the use of the European Peer Review methodology through the development of face-to-face peer training/guidelines for peers;
- To provide for further practical experimentation (continuing VET; new types of schools including schools for apprenticeship training);
- To investigate the added-value of Peer Review and support the sustainable implementation of Peer Review as an element of the CQAF on national and European levels.
