To achieve these aims we will:
- Build on the results of the OERTest initiative by piloting, within a living lab, the use of a student-held learning passport to facilitate recognition & mobility
- Plan, test and create a recognition-clearinghouse to support the verification and investigation of learning passports
- Create a typology of quality systems used in VM and OER systems, to support the learning passports and recognition-clearinghouse
- Engage in dialogue with multiple institutions around Europe so as to mainstream the use of the recognition tools created by the project
