Project title: Competences in Education and Cross-Border Recognition

Coordinating institution: Nuffic

Dates: 1 November 2005 – 31 July 2007

Participant countries: Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, UK

Subject areas included in the project: Business Administration, Chemistry, History, Nursing

Project objectives: The main goal of the CoRe Project was to evaluate whether the learning outcomes and competences of European educational programmes developed as a result of the TUNING process indeed contribute to the further facilitation of international recognition. The following questions were to be answered at the end of the CoRe Project:
1) What information about the objectives, learning outcomes, and competences of an educational programme is currently produced by institutions?
2) Is this information appropriate and sufficient for the purpose of credential evaluation? If not, how can this be improved?
3) Does the information about the objectives, learning outcomes and competences of an educational programme give better insight to the level of the programme, and therefore have an additional value for the purpose of credential evaluation?
4) Would credential evaluators be able to use the documentation that describe the objectives, learning outcomes and competences in their daily practice of credential evaluation?
