Digital Peer Review for green and digital VET
▶Summary
The project was initiated to modernise the European Peer Review methodology and make it relevant to the current challenges of vocational education and training. Partners identified the need to integrate digitalisation and sustainability into quality assurance processes and to provide VET providers with accessible, user-friendly tools for self-evaluation and improvement. Many institutions lacked digital capacity, trained peers, and structured feedback mechanisms. DIGITAL PR responded by creating a digital platform, updated methodology, and training programme to strengthen quality culture and cooperation across Europe.
▶Objectives
GO1 - To improve the quality and attractiveness of VET education by reinforcing self-assessment and peer assessment competencies for managers and trainers GO2 - To build a Community of Practice among VET institutions and professionals implementing the European Peer Review methodology
▶Activities
The Digital Peer Review for Green and Digital VET (DIGITAL PR) project implemented activities across five work packages: revising the European Peer Review Manual and Toolbox, creating a multilingual digital platform, training 176 peers, conducting 15 peer reviews in three countries, producing an Impact Assessment and Policy Recommendations, and disseminating results through events, publications, and a European Community of Practice.
