Conducting WBL Mentoring

I have been asked to be a Mentor. It has become a worldwide practice for an employer to assign a mentor to employees who are new or less experienced, in order to bring out their best potential. This in return will translate into a more efficient employee, and even higher profits for the employer and the company they are running. Thus it is in the employers’ interest to assign mentoring duties to an individual who will bring out the best of those individuals being mentored.   Mentors are not chosen at random, and if one has been assigned mentoring duties, it is a sign of the employers trust in the individual to perform such a duty within the workplace. Having been chosen to mentor, also indirectly implies that they are now responsible for the improvement of the staff members assigned as mentees. It is the Mentors responsibility to  Thus as a Mentor these are the basic questions to ask in order to identify details regarding the: Who? Where? What? Why? How? of mentoring.   Planning Ahead Mentoring is a serious process of professional development an individual goes through within a company, and it is the Mentors’ responsibility to achieve the … Read more

Employees abroad: All you need to know!

An internship in another European country holds benefits for all involved parties: the sending organisation, the receiving organisation and the intern. Besides organising a learning opportunity directly between two companies, there is the option to apply for funding via a mobility project funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union.   Everyone knows that university students use Erasmus to study abroad for a semester – but your apprentices can do this too!  

Compare WBL Quality Standards

How do you make sure Vocational Education and Training (VET) is corresponding with European Standards? What if there was a framework to help you with that? It has become more and more important for EU Member States and their VET-providers to implement comparable quality assurance frameworks in VET. The “European Quality Assurance in Vocational Education and Training” (EQAVET) offers you as employer or HR manager a framework to help you document, develop, monitor, evaluate and improve the effectiveness of your VET services and quality management systems. In short, the EQAVET framework supports you in improving your Quality Assurance policies and making them comparable to European Standards. The main goal of EQAVET is to improve the transparency, consistency and transferability of VET providers all over Europe. The framework contains a quality assurance cycle that has been constructed on certain quality criteria, descriptors and indicators that can be used in quality management. The quality assurance cycle consists of four phases: planning, implementation, evaluation and practices. EQAVET is a voluntary tool that can be implemented gradually, based on national legislation and practices. How does it benefit learners? Implementing the framework helps to improve the employability and mobility of learners because it aims to … Read more

Communication using digital tools

“You’re talking about a younger generation, Generation Y, whose interpersonal communication skills are different from Generation X. The younger generation is more comfortable saying something through a digital mechanism than even face to face.” Erik Qualman   This quote highlights the importance and increasing need to use digital communication in all facets of life, including education and work-based learning. The way young people learn has significantly changed in the last decade, mainly through the ubiquity of ICT.  Generation Y have been using digital tools for their learning since early childhood. These changes in education largely influence their preferred methods to communicate, search for information, but also as a way to test and assess their knowledge. At the same time, digital communication tools and channels also represent effective and flexible ways for online communication between different stakeholders. Considering the fast-paced environment of companies and increasing workload of their employees (including mentors/coaches/instructors involved in WBL on daily basis), using digital communication tools to communicate with WBL students and support their learning by using these tools offers new possibilities that has proven to be effective and time-efficient. Although, face to face interaction remains important and somewhat inevitable, the application of digital communication tools … Read more
