The EQAVET experience in Malta : using similar indicators for different sector and size of VET provider

Abstract

The chapter describes one aspect of the work done as part of the Leonardo project EQAVET coordinated by the National Commission for Further and Higher Education in Malta. EQAVET is one of the National projects focusing on quality assurance funded under the Lifelong Learning project. The aim of the project was to adapt EQAVET indicators to the Maltese context and to develop one single set of indicators which can be applied to the quality cycle, whatever sector of VET, size of VET institution. The focus of this chapter will be on how the different project partners who represented different VET providers in Malta worked together to develop the chosen indicators as adapted to their needs when implementing the quality cycle, with special emphasis on the implementation phase.
