Annex I (new)
The present recommendation proposes adoption of a cycle for assuring and improving quality in respect of VET. This is to be based on a set of proposals for quality criteria and descriptors and indicators for quality management at the level of systems, training providers and certification. The objective is not to introduce new standards, but to simplify Member States' interventions while respecting the diversity of their approaches. The descriptors and indicators should be considered as guidelines and may be chosen and applied by users with a view to assuring quality. They may be applied to initial and/or ongoing vocational training, taking account of the relevant characteristics of the VET system in each Member State and the type of VET service provider concerned. They should be utilised on a voluntary basis for the management of the quality cycle and should not be considered as reference values or as means of evaluating the quality and effectiveness of national systems or of making comparisons between such systems. Responsibility for monitoring the quality of the systems is entirely a matter for the Member States.
