Event: 25/06/2009 - Certification and recognition of formal and informal learning: top priorities for adults’ education and training

This seminar is a follow up of the previous event organised in January 2009, which was aimed at presenting and discussing ETF feasibility study on adult learning, within the context of an overall policy for human capital development. During the implementation of the study and the January’s event, certification and validation of learning have been identified as key topics to consider when developing an adult learning strategy.

The seminar will therefore be aimed at analysing the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, through the presentation from the institutions and the employers and to bring as well the experience from other countries where the system is quite well advanced like the case of France. The presentation will show why it is so crucial to have the employers involved since the very beginning of the process in a pro-active way in identifying and designing the relevant certificates and the appropriate procedures for certification. It will be also important to discuss these issues in the context of developments of the European policy in education and training as well as the support that Bosnia and Herzegovina will receive through the implementation of EC IPA funded projects aimed at developing and adult learning strategy and adult learning law and piloting some training initiatives.
