Operational objectives:

  • Increasing knowledge about experiences and best practices / bad practices in EQARF implementation for tourism activities, selecting national ‘exemplar cases’ involving tourism enterprises, training agencies in ‘participatory research’;
  • Tuning of tools and instruments focused on the crucial issues of EQARF indicators, creating a proper instrument for implementating  qualitative EQARF indicators;
  • Increasing skills and awareness about EQAVET’s impact and benefit on tourism learning activities, developing collaboration and cooperation amongst tourism services’ beneficiaries (namely tourists), enterprises, trainers,  experts, and QA evaluators;
  • Widening transnational collaboration, activating work teams to connect stakeholders for defining shared instruments;
  • Experimenting friendly and usable tools for simplifying the EQAVET / EQARF effective implementation within current monitoring and assessing learning activities and management.
