Results of the EQF-Ref Project

	EQF Referencing Process and Report (EQF-Ref, May 2011) The final publication of the EQF-Ref project is composed of four parts: Part I is the introductory part which describes the background of the EQF-Ref project, its aims and partnership. Part II is related to the EQF referencing process and addresses the following issues: who is responsible for this process, who organises it, how are stakeholders involved, what is the timeframe for this process, how are international experts involved and how can other kinds of international cooperation be used in this process, what is the role of the EQF Advisory Group. Part III is related to the structure and content of the referencing report and focuses in particular on Criterion 2 (linking national qualifications levels to the EQF levels) and on Criterion 4 (transparent criteria and procedures for classifying qualifications in an NQF). Part IV is related to the phase following the EQF referencing process and addresses the following issues: when do EQF referencing reports need to be updated, how can the reports be analysed and evaluated and who are the actual beneficiaries of the referencing processes.
