The missing link to connect education and employment: recognition of non-formal and informal learning outcomesFootnote☆This paper is based on a large-scale OECD thematic review that the author undertook when he was with the OECD (see Werquin 2010a). It is based on documents prepared by countries and experts (see http://www.oecd.org/edu/recognition) as well as on the existing literature, especially the documents prepared by and for the European Union Commission. Interestingly enough, this thematic review went beyond the OECD borders, and countries from all five continents were involved in the exercise. Even if the primary focus here is upon European countries, this paper has benefited from exposure to many different systems and has shed light on the somewhat different approaches that countries have taken in the area of learning outcomes; especially, when it comes to the assessment and RNFILO.
