The fourth INQAAHE Talks webinar is scheduled for November 4, 2022.

Quality Assuring VET and Level 5: supporting harmonious transitions

November 4, 2022 (Friday)
14:00 - 15:30 UTC+1/CET

INQAAHE Talks webinar series presentations aim to connect INQAAHE membership with the broader international higher education community to collectively reflect on shared challenges and best practice, providing insights with a view to ensuring that higher education and quality assurance continue to serve the best interest of our increasingly interconnected communities. 

This session will focus on issues surrounding technical and vocational programming that can fall outside or within traditional quality assurance bodies and frameworks for degree programming. Ensuring that there is credential and credit recognition for student academic progression and mobility is critical to support the higher education and labour market systems. Quality and recognition are the link in ensuring the connection between VET, HE, and the labour and supporting flexible learning.

Invited speakers from around the world will reflect on experiences in quality assuring VET and/or technical degree and professional programming. Speakers will unpack what makes QA of technical education different from QA of different levels, how QA of VET is different from HE, the importance of flexible pathways as a way to ensure lifelong learning and equality of opportunities, and some of the challenges and opportunities in the area.
