Quality assurance in vocational education and training in Kosovo

This study found that the comprehensive quality assurance system for vocational education and training (VET) covering the main policy areas (including administration, qualifications cycle, continuing professional development, registries, and VET provision) needs to be improved. Whilst quality assurance measures supporting these areas exist, they are either still at the development level, or only partially implemented, or merely provided for by secondary laws and legislation. The qualifications cycle seems to be the policy area that is best covered by quality assurance measures. However, the alignment of these policy areas requires that all of them are 'under control' to ensure that the system delivers quality VET. Information about the VET context in Kosovo and quality assurance at the VET system level is provided in the report, with strengths, developments and needs outlined. A number of good practice examples are also presented.
