Each training area consists of three steps.
Information about the procedure within the online training can be found here.

 

The evaluation (assessment) of refugee students’ learning progress has two main purposes: 

• The first purpose is to inform teachers and trainers about the results of their teaching and training, so they can organise learning activities adapted to the requirements and capacities of individual students. 
• The second purpose is to provide formative feedback to students about their attainment to help them focus their learning efforts and enhance their progress. Dialogical evaluation by teachers and students of learning progress can improve their ability to learn. In addition, teachers’ evaluation and recognition of students’ learning progress can encourage their engagement and strengthen their development of confident learning identities. 

Beyond the immediate goal of attaining specific vocational skills, VET has the overall goal to develop students into lifelong learners, which means helping them learning to learn. Encouraging refugee students’ ongoing assessment of their own attainment can help them become self-directed learners.
