Schools for Europe Community College III (SECC III)

The Schools for Europe Community College III took place from September 3rd to September 10th 2006 at the International People's College in Helsingør/Elsinore, Denmark.

The motive of the ACC for undertaking this project was to create a forum in which Europeans got the opportunity to state their opinions on validation/assesment, to co-create and test validation-methods and to ensure that it does not challenge the benefits from achieving within an environment encompassing no exams.

Within this project, we have set up an alternative expert community of previous participants in European Community College courses.

The expert community members recognized already before participating, that European Community College courses (or similar learning formats) gave added real competence for living, working and/or for further educating themselves in a European context.

All the resources on this website are a result of the work of this expert community.

Participants of all courses having the European Community College format as an important learning ingredience, are invited to make use of the co-citizenship logo and add it to their personal CV. They are as well invited to make use of the identified skills, knowledge and competencies on the co-citizenship website. By taking serious the co-citizenship logo by using it, previous participants are as well helping to promote the added European value of European, non-formal and residential learning courses.

Due to globalization, a need for a dialogue about validation/assesment has emerged. By creating “Schools for Europe Community Colleges III” the ACC would like to take active part in this dialogue and encourage the citizens to take an initiative and be involved actively in the development of the European civil society.

The project was carried out by the ACC International Programme Office and was the third in a series of Community Colleges dedicated to policy development within our field.
