Background and introduction

Page 3: Recognition of open and non-formal learning

• Open and innovative education, training and youth work, embedded in the digital era

• Transparency and recognition of skills and qualifications to facilitate learning, employability and labour mobility

• Access to training and qualifications for all through C-VET

Priorities Addressed

Opening Up: Challenges for institutions

Curriculum opening up through:

• Open Educational Resources

• Massive open online courses

• open collaboration and communication among teachers and learners

• creating innovative education services for diverse learning groups

• recognition and validation of non-formal open learning

Page 4: Recognition of open and non-formal learning

The ReOpen project follows recommendations stated in the EC JRC

research study on „Validation of Non-formal MOOC-based learning”

(2016) by establishing validated open learning practices

To recognise non-formal open learning, education institutions and

employers need

– validated Open Online Learning (OOL) curriculum examples and

– digitally smart learning environments leading to OOL recognition

– case scenarios on recognition of validated non-formal open learning

Needs addressed

Page 5: Recognition of open and non-formal learning

• Addressing objectives of "Opening Up“• Implementing recommendations of EC JRC research study on

“Validation of Non-formal MOOC – based Learning” (2016) by– establishing validated open learning practices – offering learner credentials for online and open learning (OOL)

curriculum:• verification of learner identity• setting learning agreement and other instruments

• establishing digital badges for recognition of learning achievements

– establishing collaboration with institutions to provide transparent information on potential recognition of OOL

– providing T&T with the tools for OOL development and recognition

Project scope

Page 6: Recognition of open and non-formal learning

ReOPEN project aims to create instruments to develop validated OOL for recognition of prior and non-formal learning.

The aim will be reached through the following objectives:

1. To design a platform for non-formal open learning curriculum (e.g. MOOC) development with learning validation and recognition instruments in place:

a) learner credentials

b) digital badges

c) learning path recognition and assessment tools

Aim and objectives

2. To train T&TT at C-VET organizations, companies, HE institutions and adult learning organizations to:

b) design validated non-formal open learning curriculum (e.g. MOOC or other)

c) apply of digital badges as a new form of digital credentialisation and tracking one’s learning path in non-formal open learning

d) recognize non-formal open learning results in formal curricular

Aim and objectives

3. To exploit the new platform and to design non-formal open learning courses for continuous professional staff developing (CPD) applying learning recognition instruments for validated non-formal open learning

4. To establish partnership for future collaboration for non-formal open learning recognition (reviewing curriculum in partner institutions and preparing information on potential recognition of open learning)
