V.I.S.I.B.L.E. Validation issues induct basis for learning evaluation

The VISIBLE Project will focus on the development of Validation IssueS Induct a Basis for Learning Evaluation. Itdirectly addresses the necessity, for the European DAs, to recognise organisational positions and related competencesstarting from the position of Project Manager (onwards PM) PMs – a position registering an increment in number inthe labour market, can have a master on a technical background.Nowadays, the most crucial competences for them are the horizontal ones such as Networking, ResourcesManagement, Communication.They have continuously to improve these competences, and they normally can do this by non-formal learningprocesses. Mutual recognition, even in case of the position of PM (WP2), is a matter of fact. This point is a seriousthreat for the European DAs, which are trying to pass from the rhapsodic common projects to models of permanentmutual co-operation. They need indeed to reduce organisational barriers by exploiting the potential of staff exchangeand even European job mobility. A common horizon of vocational training, where not only the settings and practicesof learning are shared but also the key references and standards, is a crucial precondition for this process to start.Therefore, members of the teams should know what are the positions of their colleagues, what competencies they areexpected to act and at what level, what responsibilities they can therefore undertake.The VISIBLE Project aims at contributing to this process developing innovation in the field of the non-formallearning validation (WP3). It will use Case Histories, generated from PMs experience, as a common validationmethodology of non-formal learning of horizontal competences.This methodology elaborated inside the consortium, and later exploited towards different potential users (WP6), willconcern both process and integrated tools, such as Transparent Pedagogical Framework, VISIBLE Guide, Theatrebased Role Playing, V.I.S.I.B.L.E Game. Eight countries belonging to EU and SEE are represented(IT/FR/BE/NO/HU/SK/RO/BG), with a significant number belonging to the CADSES area. DAs different typologiesare represented (Regional Development Agencies, Agency for Economical Development, Local Action Groupfinanced by the EU LEADER+ programme, Sectorial Agency), with important differences in terms of size andterritories represented, but with the same necessity.Moreover two highly qualified training providers are involved in the consortium (NO/BE). The consortium extensionand quality are the ideal preconditions to develop the above effective and innovative methodology and for its furtherexploitation outside the consortium. Precondition also ensured by an effective Quality and Evaluation Plan(WP4)
