On 10./11. of April, the VIC partners met in Vienna and started developing the competence framework based on LEVEL5 for assessing and validating refugees’ competences related to the integration process.
According to the idea that all citizens shall be equipped with a number of competences to be able to live peacefully together in a diverse society the VIC partners set up a repository of competences. These are among others:
- Networking
- Communication
- Intercultural competences
- Flexibility
- Collaboration for living and learning in a diverse society
- Social engagement
- Resilience
- Willingness to learn
- Critical thinking
- Trust/reliability
- Problem solving
- Productive autonomy
For each of these sub-competences the VIC partners will develop reference systems to support learning and validation and will establish a catalogue of appropriate assessment methods based on these systems.
