About
LLIVET
Language and Literacy in Vocational Education and Training
LLIVET is a Leonardo da Vinci Learning Partnership implemented by 4 organisations (Austria, France, Switzerland, Bulgaria) that are active in the field of basic skills and vocational education and training (VET). The Partnership will consider relevant evidence on the effectiveness of delivery models of basic skills in VET, share examples of good practice, and discuss issues of transfer from one European context to another. Visits to VET learning providers and the involvement of learners and trainers in the host country of each of the five planned workshops will enrich the discussion of topics within the overall theme for the project and ensure that the discussions and outcomes of the partnership are grounded in practice.
The overall aim of this partnership is to explore issues around basic skills in VET, to increase awareness among the partners and relevant stakeholders in their countries of the possibilities of embedding, contextualising or otherwise combining basic skills with VET. Within this aim, there are four objectives:
1. to increase awareness of the importance of basic skills in VET;
2. to identify examples of good practice;
3. to identify evidence on the effectiveness of different models of basic skills learning in VET;
4. to recommend areas for further research.
Our approach to meeting these objectives will be to hold five workshops, each addressing a major issue.
