  30. Key challenges influencing the future of validation in Europe? KEY QUESTIONS

  31. Key challenges influencing the future of validation in Europe? • The overarching objective of validation: visibility and value of learning ➢ How is this objective reflected in national and institutional policies? • Validation and the individual citizen and learner ➢ Which validation methodologies can best respect and reflect the unique character of individual learning experiences? ➢ How validation arrangements can effectively address this need for interconnection and networking across sectors and institutions? ➢ How can guidance and validation work coherently together?

  32. Key challenges influencing the future of validation in Europe? • The political context of validation: lifelong and lifewide learning ➢ How to engage employers and other labour market actors, notably social partners, in validation arrangements and how to bridge between the labour market and education? ➢ How to mobilise civil society in taking forward validation? ➢ How to reach out to individuals, especially low-qualified individuals, to encourage them to engage in a validation process?

  33. Key challenges influencing the future of validation in Europe? Valuing validation • ➢ How to generate trust for individual users to seek validation? ➢ How to ensure that policy makers and stakeholders see validation as a sufficient trustworthy alternative to traditional learning routes? • The design of validation arrangements ➢ How to enhance the shift to learning outcomes in order to allow the validation route to qualifications as indicated above? ➢ How non-formal learning leading to a certificate will be connected to NQFs?

  34. Key challenges influencing the future of validation in Europe? • The professionalisation of validation ➢ How to promote the professionalisation of validation practitioners? ➢ How specific quality assurance mechanisms need to be in validation? ➢ How to best support further research at national and European levels, taking account of ongoing work such as the European Inventory and the European Guidelines? ➢ How this community can be further strengthened, both nationally and at European level? The financing of validation • ➢ How to make visible the benefits of validation; not only the costs?
