Project description:
Catering and tourist industry are one of the most important economic sectors in Europe providing millions of jobs. This sector is based to a great extent on the flexibility and mobility of the labour force which is very often limited by the insufficient transparency of qualifications and by the fact that these qualifications are not mutually recognized by the countries across Europe.
In order to address this issue this project will use ECVET to create a working scheme for mutual recognition and transparency of competencies together with the learning results in the catering and tourist industry. Main aim of the project is to create and test the ECVET model for the catering and tourism industry in Europe. Among other tasks will be the creation of a guide for using ECVET in practice, instructions for the development of ECVET compatible learning programmes and share experience regarding the usage of the working scheme.
