Controlled-environment agriculture and hydroponics VET: Expanding and building upon best practices for the twin transition

PONICS VET Expanded aims to support the development of a VET curriculum (EQF 5) on hydroponics-based agriculture and hydroponics technology. Knowledge, skills, and competencies will be mapped to ISCO-08, ESCO, EQF, NQFs, and EU frameworks. The curriculum will be designed according to the ECVET structure of modular units and sets of learning outcomes, and its qualification assessed, transferred, validated, and certified in relation to the ECVET key principles.
