Recognition of Prior Learning Outcomes                                             

SVUK was part of a consortium of nine partners from five countries working on the Recognition of Prior Learning Outcomes (RPLO) Project. A Leonardo funded Transfer of Innovation Project, its aim was to improve the attractiveness and effectiveness of the VET Teachers and Trainers profession in the UK and partner countries. For RPLO queries click here.

A new unit of learning for RPLO at level 5 (15 credits) has been developed. At a recent meeting of the UCET Post-16 Committee, it was recognised that this Unit provided a generic framework which could be used within HEI programmes.

Support materials for this approach to Initial Teacher/Trainer Education as well as CPD are available here.

For more information, please connect Prof. John Konrad the RPLO Project Coordinator at john.konrad@talktalk.net.

The project group held a dissemination event at Cambridge Assessment on 10 September 2010. The event was of interest to anyone engaged with developing policy and practice in recognition of prior learning and gave delegates the opportunity to learn more about the work of the project and examine developments in this area across the European Community.
