Results and Conclusions of the Study: The Practice of Recognition of Prior Education and Experience in Latvian Higher Education Institutions (in Latvian)

Agnese Rusakova, researcher

Discussion on:

• Recognition of learning outcomes – what do you think would be the most effective ways to encourage higher education institutions to share information about course descriptions? How realistic would it be to create a unified digital environment where course descriptions are available?

• Recognition of non-formal education – in your opinion, what is the most effective approach (assessment methods) for evaluating whether the knowledge, skills, and competences acquired through non-formal education correspond to a specific study course?

• Recognition of professional experience – which documents do you consider sufficient (formal) proof of professional experience?
