Objectives
On the basis of WP3’s experiences and discussions, it is evident that there has been significant progress in many countries in developing stronger synergies between different ministries, and between ministries and other stakeholders, in the development of lifelong guidance systems. These include cross-policy approaches and stronger co-operation at both national and regional levels. In many of these countries, the process of sharing across countries through the ELGPN has played a valuable catalytic role.
Following the working principles in previous ELGPN Work Programmes, the approach of WP3 in the next period should give the opportunity for:
- countries with existing fora or similar mechanisms to improve co-operation and co-operation in concrete areas of lifelong guidance, orientated to European policies as well as on national priorities;
- countries with emerging fora or similar mechanisms to compare, to improve and to implement effective mechanisms with the support of countries which have experience in adequate policies and processes;
- countries without existing fora or similar mechanisms to find appropriate policies, processes and persons for a successful start and a sustainable strategy.
Principles
- Effective steps from overall strategy and policy approach towards practical progress in defined areas of lifelong guidance within lifelong learning.
- Focus on support for persons in their concrete areas of work and responsibility to find appropriate approaches, processes and solutions.
Orientation on concrete interests, needs and priorities of countries within the European framework of policies and strategies.
Outcomes
- Well-documented progress in the development and implementation of co-operation and co-ordination mechanisms in lifelong guidance at national and regional levels.
- Documentation of the effects and contributions of experiences, knowledge end recognitions gained at national and European level, with examples of concrete applications through cross-border co-operation and support.
- Contributions to the process of revision of the Common Reference Tools based on practical processes and policies.
