What are the most important aspects to consider when educating foreigners in our country? Does the system of educating migrants in Poland need to be modernized? These were some of the key questions discussed by the participants of the first Sirius 2.0 network meeting.
What needs to be considered when developing a system to include non-school qualifications in an NQF? Should this be governed by detailed public regulations or by guiding principles? How will charging fees for inclusion affect the system? Should the system be centralised or devolved? What are the implications of the various options for including qualifications in an NQF?
On behalf of the Educational Research Institute, we would like to invite you to participate in an international conference organised under the auspices of the “Support to central government administration, awarding bodies and quality assurance institutions in implementing stage I of the Integrated Qualifications System” project, entitled: "Sectoral approach to qualifications – qualifications frameworks, occupational standards, sector skills councils".
The conference will present the experiences of different countries on including qualifications attained in the non-formal education sector in national qualifications frameworks. The main focus will be on the models developed, which are based on a detailed analysis of the systems in seven EU countries: Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Hungary, Ireland, Poland and UK-Scotland.
