very new and therefore they do not have background. She explains that in her country VET
guidance is ruled by 2 main regulations: Vocational Education and Training Act and National
Lifelong Learning Strategy 2008-2013. But there is still lack of a National system for VET
guidance, of coordination between official institutions and providers of and those in need of
vocational guidance. She informs about several good examples of VET guidance projects and
initiatives currently running in the country, but it’s still not enough to talk about a unified
system.

Discussion point: What kind of template to be used for further tables to be implemented?
At the Kick-off meeting in Turkey all partners agreed upon the elaboration of a comparison
table to be filled in by each partner in order to put together the different characteristics of
vocational education and guidance methodologies implemented in all partner countries. It was
said that Slovenian partner should present a first template to be discussed during this meeting.
But, all participants agreed that first of all we have to define VET and the target group to be
addressed.
After discussing, all participants agreed on the following:
• Decide exact definition of the target group
• Establish common categories for the table
Conclusions:
• Target group: First to third qualification (students aged 15 – 20/21)
• Categories:
- History
- Legal framework/legislation
- Activities
- Providers
- Examples of good practices (a maximum of 5 examples per country).
Each category can be divided into national and regional ones, and each partner must include
info under each category. And during next meeting in Italy, Elmo will decide how to structure it
to insert later into the online platform to be performed. The info under these categories is
planned to be available for everyone (counsellors, pupils and parents).
Deadline for this task: End of January (all partners).

3. Afternoon Session
4. SPAIN: QUESTIONNAIRES ABOUT THE MODALITY IN IMPLEMENTING VET
GUIDANCE AT SCHOOLS
Amelia presents a model of questionnaire that is distributed to the students who finish the
compulsory secondary education in Extremadura to guide them in the process of taking a
decision on what they want to do in their near future: VET, labor market or other alternatives.
They can be provided with information on the process of decision-making and they can
elaborate an action plan for their next steps. It is very complete and they can access this
questionnaire when they are coming to the end of their secondary studies. They can do this
questionnaire individually, it is very practical, accessible online and it is optional for the
students. Some teachers mentor them to complete the questionnaire at the school.
Amelia agrees on researching for having statistical data on the percentages of how many
people complete it in the region of Extremadura. She also presents a model of an assessment
questionnaire for students at the end of a VET learning module. It is very oriented to evaluate
the training experience as well as the experience in the company where they made their
professional practices and about their motivations for their future.
The last tool presented by Amelia is ORIENTA. This is also an online guidance test
implemented by a private company and it is available for the high schools to buy it and
customize it according to their preferences. An example from the school “Instituto Albarregas”
in Merida town was the one used in the presentation.

actors in the educational process to be connected and be able to share information and
experiences. The management of RAYUELA is oriented to coordinate all the public schools in
the region (more than 300 schools being the vast majority of them located in rural areas). The
