Development and Test of a Modular ECVET System in Europe
Considering the increasing percentage of the geriatric population in both Turkey and EU, problems and life conditions of the geriatric population is an important issue for community and family life. Families need to be informed and help from social workers or medicals. Because of the increasing of dependence and illness at geriatric period, care of the elderly poeople becomes more difficult. Not only physically both also psychologically, elderly people need support.So, there should be skilled person who attend service-training about elderly people (their problems, needs, how to support them, how to deal with them etc.). The recognition of informal and non-formal learning is a necessity in the current era of lifelong learning. In fact, there are numerous barriers to supply the skills acquired in this way a recognition.People need to present and future, have a high mobility in terms of work tasks to be dealt with and the successive worker.Careers are increasingly a series of work and orientation phases. Here, the phases of work organization are very often associated with training. This gives a possibility for the recognition of acquired through informal and non formal learning and skills through final competences.The opportunity is to link with the acquisition of skills on the way of formal learning in vocational training. This project aims to transfer the EU project ESO-CERT developed method for ECVET assessment of vocational skills developed and be used anywhere in Europe. According to this method is the assessment of skills regardless of the way of skill acquisition possible. There are learning achievements of formal, non-formal and informal learning together. Using this method to form modular components, leading to complex action-oriented skills are valued.Through this review, which also incorporated the earlier work on the skills acquired, higher permeability is achieved in terms of acceptance of these competencies through the economy. This results in a higher inter-company mobility of workers. In line with this objective, the partnership was formed consisting of players from the local authority, vocational research and development center, training company professional development, professional association, federation and university .Thus partners from the ECVET and ECTS area work together on a transfer of methods for the introduction of ECVET. So at the project level, a project structure has arisen, which is try to achieve on a higher political level. The result of the project is to develop and test a modular system of credits in vocational training at elderly care action-oriented skills in care sector. Based on the method developed in ESO-CERT units are defined, described the action-oriented skills needed identified learning outcomes assessed and developed the competence assessment process and tested. For the recognition of credits required for a competency test developed in the ESO-CRS online competence assessment platform is transferred.
