4.6 - External Evaluation

Abstract

Feedback is often collected from students and from teachers and trainers, but, as a Quality
Manager, you should not underestimate the importance of having external feedback on the
activities and on the results of the training.

4.4 - Three indicators to track learners’ achievements

Abstract

Individual learners’ achievements depend on a variety of factors: some of them are external, but
many relate directly to the quality of VET provision. The EQAVET framework offers three specific
indicators which can help you track learners’ achievements and use the data collected to improve the
overall quality of your VET provision.

3.2 - Enhance Transnational Mobility of trainers and learners

Abstract

Transnational cooperation through participation in conferences, study visits, joint projects or mobility of teachers and students provides opportunities for learning and thus for improving quality. The activities conducted may reinforce one another and create synergy: a study visit might turn into sustained cooperation and joint projects, participation at a conference may lead to common visits and exchange of students, teachers and trainers.

3.1 - Design the links with and engage the external collaborator

Abstract

To enhance the quality of education and make your VET institution a dynamic educational
environment, it is important to design links with external collaborators, but also to engage them in
your educational practices. As Quality Manager, you should be aware that, for VET providers,
cooperation with external stakeholders and in particular the world of work is a key activity with
many different benefits for the quality of the training.
