European Certificates Campus Project

Welcome to the EU Cert Project Website.

This project (Project number: 135691- LLP-1-2007-1-AT-KA3-KA3MP) is carried out with the financial support of the Commission of the European Communities under the Leonardo da Vinci Programme

Project Description:

In 2005 the European Quality Network has been created supported by the EU Leonardo da Vinci Program (Network Project EQN, 2005 . 2007). The overall objective of the EQN Leonardo network project was to establish an ECQA (European Certification and Qualification Association) which supported by training organisations from European countries (currently organisations from 18 countries participate) installs a set of quality criteria and common certification rules which are applied across the different European regions in the Life Long Learning scope in the IT and services sector. This results in a pool of professions in which a high level of European comparability has been achieved by a Europe wide agreed syllabus and skills set, a European test questions pool and European exam (computer automated by portals) systems, and a common set of certificate levels and a common process to issue certificates. http://www.ecqa.org

The objective of this EU Cert Campus project is to build on the established ECQA Association (www.ecqa.org, network for innovation in education, and pool of European professions applying the same quality and certification criteria in EU countries based on the European Qualification framework, Aug 2005 - Oct 2007, Leonardo Network) and to integrate the results from a European research project which developed an integrated selective online learning platform system (EPI - Educational Partnership through ICT, 2003 . 2005, ) to build an online learning system for all the professions for training organisations from 14 European countries.
