In 2009, ECVET (European Credit Transfer System in Vocational Education and Training) was expected to finally be adopted and began a testing phase that lasted until 2012.
During this period, testing projects and initiatives were developed at national and European levels. 3s cooperated with GHK Consulting Ltd to support pilot projects financed through the European Lifelong Learning programme and specifically the eleven ECVET testing projects selected after the 2008 call and that began their work in 2009.
