Možnosti implementace systému uznávání výsledků neformálního vzdělávání a informálního učení v ČR

The main actor of lifelong learning (LLL) is a learner. It is important to assess and support their entire learning -- i.e. to value learning -- not only that occurring within formal education system but non-formal and informal learning as well. However, non-formal and informal learning outcomes have been not certified by certificates recognized by society as a whole yet. Moreover, informal learning occurs without curricula and teaching. These are the reasons why it is technically necessary to develop suitable instruments and schemes for recognizing learning outcomes which enable implementation of the LLL system. With regard to implementation of the LLL system in the Czech Republic, there are realized various projects and initiatives, national and sector equivalents of European instruments are created or European instruments for implementation of the European LLL concept are introduced (the National occupations system, the National qualifications framework, a system of recognition non-formal and informal learning outcomes, the Law no. 179/2006, Coll. on recognition of further education outcomes, the European Credit transfer system for Vocational Education and Training). The paper is concerned with opportunities and obstacles in the way of implementation of all the instruments mentioned above into LLL concept of the Czech Republic.
