The project addresses the processes and systems of validation of non-formal and informal learning, responding to the needs of employees and job-seekers to have recognition of their competencies acquired during their working life. The tourism sector has been chosen as a target sector because of the increasing number of individuals working in tourism sector (hotels) in Lithuania and other EU partner countries. The project will be implemented by 8 partners from 5 EU countries. The partnership is based on the effort to use the best European practice in the field of validation of non-formal learning. Each country has its own tools, instruments and procedures as well as different contexts: different legislation, educational systems.
