📣 Second version of the ‘European Quality Standards in Validating the Learning Outcomes from Volunteering’ available at www.eqval.eu

The aim of the eQval project is to define and promote across the EU the adoption of the ‘European Quality Standards in Validating the Learning Outcomes from Volunteering’. ✅💯

The first version of the ‘European Quality Standards in Validating the Learning Outcomes from Volunteering’ was produced by the partners of the eQval project in March 2023. Over the next few months, the project partners conducted a public consultation on this initial version of the standards. A total of 684 people from across the EU, representing all the stakeholders involved in the process of validating the learning outcomes from volunteering, took part in the public consultation: 📋

66 Universities 🎓
64 Vocational schools 🏫
64 Providers of non-formal education 📚
61 Enterprises 🏢
42 Public administrations and policymakers in the field of education and training 📊
155 Voluntary organizations ❤️
232 Volunteers 🤝

Based on the feedback from the participants in the public consultation, the partners of the eQval project produced the second version of the ‘European Quality Standards in Validating the Learning Outcomes from Volunteering’. ✅💯

Currently, the project partners are developing a Manual to support all those interested in adopting these quality standards. The Manual will include detailed guidelines and support materials to facilitate the implementation of the ‘European Quality Standards in Validating the Learning Outcomes from Volunteering’. This Manual will be published at www.eqval.eu in June 2024. 📆

The eQval project is an initiative of the Spanish Volunteer Platform (Spain) in collaboration with: CESUR (Spain), Munster Technological University (Ireland), Centre for European Volunteering (Belgium), CSVnet (Italy), the Portuguese Volunteer Confederation (Portugal), and Psitest (Romania). The project is co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union. 🤝🇪🇸🇮🇪🇧🇪🇮🇹🇵🇹🇷🇴🇪🇺🎓 Plataforma Voluntariado España Munster CESUR CEV - Centre for European Volunteering Confederação Portuguesa do Voluntariado - CPV PSITEST CSVnet
