The improving of the qualifications of care assistants (www.iqea.eu)

The aim of the project: the development and the experimentation of a ECVET system for the elderly care assistants and caregivers providing care either at home or in nursing facilities (in residential centers and shelters). The process led to the signing of a partnership agreement between the institutions from Italy, Romania and Poland, an agreement that allows students to obtain credits, to acquire a recognized qualification in the care field in all regions which piloted the project (Italy, Romania and Poland), no matter what the training institution issuing the diploma is. The project coordinator was EXFOR Italy.
The partner countries were Italy, Germany, Romania and Poland .
