Project Description

Lately, the research on the quality of vocational training have become elements of great interest not only to ensure “products” of value to the direct and indirect beneficiaries of the training activities, but also to facilitate Human Resources mobility by bringing national systems to a minimum “European” of common Quality Assurance (QA) standards. The purpose of the Automatic Control Quality Tool System project is to develop and test a process of controlling the quality of education through the use of the indicators set out in the Common European Framework EQAVET. During the research, the indicators were made objectively quantifiable and measurable giving them values that allow them to be connected with other elements of the specific QA systems and be in harmony with the EQAVET indicators. The project developed an online system to assess the quality of performance of training systems relative to the objectives of the provision of training activities. This will result in a bench-learning tool for European VET stakeholders in the tourism sector.
