It foresees the possibility to identify the VET Provider profile respect to specific quality indicators, it provides a personalized support and a feedback system that allows the improvement of the service itself.

Objectives:

EQAFIT’s objective is providing concrete guidelines and tools for supporting VET providers in improving and/or setting up Quality Assurance systems, in particular in relation with the fourth phase of the PDCA cycle, still considered to be the most challenging and difficult to implement.

Additionally, partners will define a graduate tracking system (method and tools) and a model for collecting and using the feedback received in order to improve the quality of future training programmes. The graduate tracking system will collect quantitative and qualitative data.

As final step, EQAFIT will develop an online service for VET providers that will allow them to firstly conduct a self-assessment in order to better understand their level of compliance with EQAVET. QA Tools and Guidelines (existing and newly developed) and of the Graduate tracking system will be integrated into the online service
