It is especially designed for persons who already have basic knowledge about the IQS and would like to learn more about the validation of learning outcomes. These can be representatives of institutions interested in awarding market qualifications included in the IQS, in validating the learning outcomes required for qualifications and in the internal quality assurance of awarding qualifications. We therefore invite people from managerial staff, teachers, trainers, assessors, examiners, vocational and/or educational counsellors.

During the seminar, participants will learn:

• the information in the description of a qualification that has to be taken into account in designing the validation process of the learning outcomes required for the qualification,
• how to choose validation methods for the learning outcomes to ensure the highest reliability of the results of their assessment,
• the elements of a validation scenario,
• how to develop a validation scheme based on a validation scenario,
• the elements of an internal quality assurance system for awarding qualifications,
• how foreign qualifications systems operate in practice.

The seminar is led by experienced trainers – experts in learning involved in the design and implementation of institutional solutions in the IQS at the Educational Research Institute.

The turnout was good, about 100 participants interested in validation attended. Among the issues discussed were the prospects for the development of the Integrated Qualifications System, the role and significance of market qualifications in the IQS, as well as the elements of a qualification’s description. Above all, however, the main topic of the meeting was validation and its practical application.

During the conference, tools useful in planning and conducting validation were presented, such as:

My Portfolio – a computer and smartphone application that helps people interested in attaining market qualifications to properly prepare for validation

Catalogue of Validation Methods – a source of information on selected methods of verifying competences used in various stages of validation

Database of Good Practices – examples of how validation and ensuring the quality of the process of awarding qualifications are organised in different countries.

During the meeting, two panel discussions were held with the participation of representatives of various IQS stakeholder groups.
