EURASHE Seminar on RPL – Amsterdam, The Netherlands

RPL (Validation of Non-Formal and Informal Learning) is one of the most challenging issues in European Education. Indeed this topic is mentioned in many documents published by the European Commission and other organisations, but mainly with a focus on the lower levels of the EQF, on VET and qualifications for the labour market.  Because of the challenges that Europe is facing, there is a strong need of flexibility in higher education, in lifelong learning and in professional programmes. An improvement of  the RPL-procedures with the purpose to make them first of all payable and effective is key at this stage.
