Working group for the development of qualification standard for the teacher education subject filed held its fourth meeting on 6-8 November 2014 in Konjic. On the interim meeting the working group finalized their respective Qualification Standard template considering all the comments made by the CoE experts and especially considering the documents produced by the other four respective working groups.
The working group focused on giving further thought to the place and role of transferable skills and employability aspects within their QS; strengthening/deepening the learning outcomes; exploring the role and weighting of any projects/thesis; considering if they have been sufficiently innovative in their QS - do they reflect cutting edge international standards?; reflecting on the level of choice and flexibility in the QS given the level of obligatory ECTS credits identified - are they being too prescriptive?; considering the possibility of introducing more flexibility regarding entry routes.
Having in mind that experts as trainers from all relevant stakeholders in the BiH are crucial for the development and sustainable implementation of the QF-BiH. Joint Project of the European Union and the Council of Europe "Strategic Development of Higher Education and Qualification Standards" organized a training of trainers for further development and use of Qualifications Standards and Occupational Standards in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
