Principles on EQF Assinment
There have been 5 principles identified that are crucial for the assignment of key education elements such as curricula, profiles and assessment procedures to the EQF. Those are:
- Principle 1: Interrelations between different key education elements and the consequences resulting from these interrelations when assigning one of them to the EQF
- Principle 2: A holistic view on the work process as the starting point for EQF application
- Principle 3: Determining learning outcomes in a holistic way vs. fragmentation through learning outcome orientation
- Principle 4: Developing trust in learning outcomes achieved outside the institutional context of certifying bodies
- Principle 5: The role of stakeholders and their specific interests and positions
Those principles should be kept in mind when assigning any kind of education element to a Qualifications Framework related to the EQF and when further following the suggestions and recommendations within this section.
