ECVET (European Credit system for Vocational Education and Training) for the restaurant and hotel industry
The mobility of skilled workers is becoming more and more important in a large number of sectors, in particular in the restaurant and hotel industry. Mobility can be hampered by the fact that education and training qualifications are often difficult to compare across different countries. This was the starting point of the ECVET-TOUR II project.
The first half of the project focused on the development of methodological tools for promoting mobility in vocational education and training. In the second half of the project, student mobilities were organised which will applied the developed methodology. Student mobilities took place between Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Austria.
ECVET-TOUR II builds on the results of the ECVET-TOUR (2008-2010) and the M.O.T.O. project (Model Of Transferability of Learning Outcome Units; 2009-2011). The project was coordinated by APEL (Slovakia); EDUcentrum (Czech Republic), SCM Saalfelden and 3s research laboratory contributed as project partners.
The main project activities and results have been summarised in a project brochure (click on the link provided below to download the report).
ECVET-TOUR II was funded by the European Commission under the Lifelong Learning Programme (Leonardo da Vinci Transfer of Innovation).
