Aimed at supporting cooperation with ETF partner countries in the framework of the European Neighbourhood Policy and EU development policy, this glossary presents the Russian version of key terms used in European vocational education and training (VET) policy. It does not represent an exhaustive inventory of the terminology used by VET specialists; rather it presents terms that are essential for an understanding of current VET policy in Europe. Based on the publication "Terminology of vocational training policy: A multilingual glossary for an enlarged Europe" published in 2004 by the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (Cedefop) in collaboration with the ETF, it is intended for researchers and practitioners and more generally for all those involved in VET policy.
This edition of the ETF Highlights describes a selection of ETF activities carried out in 2005. Forward looking as always, its contents are loosely grouped around the four themes that will form the backbone of the 2006 Advisory Forum conference ‘Skills for Progress’.
This publication presents a synthesis of the outcomes of VET specialists from four South Eastern European countries reviewing curriculum policy and actual practice across their own region. The resulting conclusions and recommendations echo Francis Fukuyama's challenge to conventional donor wisdom (including the EU) concerning the relationship between local ownership and practice and assumed external 'best practice' (Fukuyama, State Building, 2005).
