Competence engineering and mobility experiences in training: Towards a change in certification practices
This research documents the logic and processes by which the specificities of the competencies acquired during transnational training mobility periods can be integrated into certification frameworks in France and in Europe. The study focuses specifically on the processes of classification and categorization of these competencies acquired by mobile apprentices implemented by eight training engineers involved in a European action research project. Two issues are pursued through the classification and categorization processes studied: the recognition of the singularity of apprentices’ learning and the strategies involved in the convergence of certification frameworks between the sending and receiving countries.
