Qualifications Frameworks and the Underlying Concepts of Education and Work - Limits and Perspectives

Abstract

Apart from the European Qualifications Framework, further qualifications frameworks have meanwhile been developed and implemented on a national level by all Member States of the European Union. Nevertheless there is another level of discussions dealing with the question whether self-related qualifications frameworks should be developed and implemented. The pros and cons for such frameworks are manifold. This field of controversy is highlighted in the present research report and conclusions are drawn for further discussions. ; 1 ; 42 ; Bremen ; 55
