Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning in different sectors


The final conference of the REACTION project took place in Ghent (Belgium) on Thursday 13th and Friday 14th September 2007. It aimed at an active exchange of expertise between stakeholders and professionals from the broad field of APEL (Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning). This conference offered a unique opportunity to meet with stakeholders, practitioners and policy makers from across Europe that are all involved in the validation of non-formal and informal learning. 

Eight partners from seven different countries participated in the REACTION project. At the conference we presented the results of the research, the models and the training guidelines that this partnership has developed on APEL. Although the project focused on APEL in higher education and adult education, we wanted to broaden our horizon and also presented some good APEL practices from other fields (professional context, social sector, business approach) during the conference. We have discussed APEL crossovers between different sectors and we looked ahead to future developments. The participants were invited to formulate recommendations for future developments of APEL in a European context. Click here to read the recommendations.
