Implementation of recognised mobility for EQF level 4 training, using ECVET principles.From experimentation to operational recommendations

Description

MORE 4 Europe (new name of RECOGMOB 4) objective is to implement recognized mobility for level 4 EQF, using hospitality and catering experimentation. Recognized mobility must be distinguished from traditional mobility: - by its objective of preparing unit of learning outcomes abroad; linguistic and / or cultural objective is not the first even if it remains. - by using the principles of ECVET, i.e. transfer, recognition and accumulation of learning outcomes. - through the use of ECVET tools for recognized mobility, memorandum of understanding, learning agreement and the personal transcript of record. The project involves joint work between two groups of partners, competent bodies for certification and vocational schools. The former has to set up the regulatory framework to make possible recognition and accumulation of units prepared abroad. The latter is in charge of experimentation with the development of learning agreements between school partners within the memorandum of understanding (MoU); schools will have to support learners during mobility with pedagogical axe and assess learners' learning outcomes, reporting and transferring personal transcript of learners’ record.The project methodology has 3 key points along 2 years: - Preparation of mobility with setting up a memorandum of understanding, drafting learning agreements, selection of learners who will benefit from mobility, preparing the departure of learners. This will be the first year of the project. - Mobility itself by learners with varied modalities and timing tested during the project: academic mobility (at the school), internship (in company) or associating the two; Mobility of 6 to 8 continuous weeks or shorter or discontinuous, mobility. - Improvement of mobility for level 4 EQF based on the lessons learned. The aim is to set up a strong and clear methodology for schools wishing to implement recognized mobility with operational tools, advice and alerts, in order to develop keys to the success of such mobility. There are right now seven partners from France, Spain, Italy and Portugal. They belong to territories with various sizes and skills in terms of training and certification: Académie d’Aix-Marseille for France, Catalonia for Spain, Piemont for Italy and Portugal. Each partner is either a certification authority (Rectorat d'Aix-Marseille, Generalitat de Catalunya, USR Piemont and Turismo de Portugal) or a hotel school (Marseille, Barcelona, Mondovi, Setubal).A peculiarity is to be noted for Portugal: Turismo de Portugal is the only partner, the hotel school of Setubal acting under its tutelage. These partners all have strong experience of partnerships and / or collaborations in transnational projects. The whole project is carried by the GIP (educational interest group) of Marseille which deposits and coordinates it. The experimentation concerns level 4 of the European qualification framework. If level 5, corresponding to older learners most of whom are majors, has already been the subject of European mobility projects, Level 4 still suffers from a lack of experimentation, particularly related to the constraints specific to a range of learners who are mostly minors, in the phase of personal construction, and of a rather limited level of autonomy. Experimentation is taking place in the hotel and catering sector very mobility friendly, this facilitates the involvement of actors.The result of the project, the guidelines for recognised mobility, have been available to the target public by numerical and paper way of communication and was disseminated in several seminars.The expected impacts first affect the project partners who will develop new skills in the field of driving and accompanying the mobility of learners. But beyond the partners, the objective is to convince vocational schools and colleges to move from classical mobility to recognized mobility by showing the benefits for all stakeholders.The long-term benefit is clearly to make European professionalism a reality making learners able to fit into any type of company in their sector in Europe. The development of a European citizenship is also a powerful benefit of mobility paths.
