Promoting added value through evaluation of training II

Objective

PAVE II builds on PAVE I, a survey and analysis project funded by the Leonardo Programme in 1995. From the 1645 postal surveys returned in Finland, Germany, Ireland and the UK, 95% of respondents indicated that they would be interested in the availability of simple evaluation tools. The 125 telephone surveys and good practice visits confirmed the emerging hypothesis that effective evaluation of training promotes training as an investment within enterprises. It is evident that evaluation is a useful mechanism for supporting a learning organisation philosophy.

This project will therefore develop, pilot and promote a practical evaluation toolkit to enable SMEs to assess their own training needs. The toolkit will be made available in English, German and Finnish, and the content will be localised to the needs of each Member State. It will be unique in that, from the outset, it will be designed to accommodate local and cultural differences. The partners will actively participate in dissemination activities about the project's findings, including publishing papers in professional and educational journals, and promoting them at regional, national, and international conferences.

Impact
The project results will make a major contribution to increasing the attractiveness and prestige/status of vocational training, with parity of esteem for all training activities.
