Education / Pedagogy

Swedish term or phrase: Kunskapslyftet

Είναι από αγγλικό κείμενο. Παρεμβάλεται και δεν ξέρω τι είναι ή που θα βρω τι είναι:

Non-formal learning has always played an important pedagogical role in organised liberal adult education in Sweden. Several different options are available. Work-based learning (in close co-operation with training providers) is a popular choice for adults. Some third sector associations issue certificates which have limited recognition. Such certificates include language certificates, hunting certificates and driving qualifications for boats. The validation process has been operating in education sectors for many years but recent years have seen a surge in activity and certain sectors have seen an increase in intensity. Surprisingly, despite all the initiatives and activity, there is still no national system for validation, although the Swedish National Commission on Validation (established in 2003) is tasked with developing methods for validation and addressing quality. Responsibility for validation in Sweden is divided between the education system and the social partners. Decentralisation of the education system means that local authorities also have important validation responsibilities and progress in validation at the local level varies between different municipalities.

Motivation for validation in Sweden has two distinct points of origin. The first is ***Kunskapslyftet***, which is a national ambition to raise the educational standard of the population to the level of upper secondary school, and the other is to assist in the professional assessment of immigrants. Several different work-related certificates are currently issued, for example, vocational education certificates (awarded for 78 trades) and Journeyman and Master certificates (awarded for 115 trades). Vocational certificates are also awarded by trade branches.
