European Peer Review Manual

The European Peer Review Manual describes a European standard procedure for the use of Peer Reviews in initial VET. It was developed in the LdV project "Peer Review in initial VET" by a team of experts from eight institutions in seven European countries. In 2006, 15 transnational pilot Peer Reviews were successfully carried out in eight European countries. Recommendations based on the experiences of the pilot phase were taken into account in the revision of the Manual which has been available since June 2007.

The Manual offers directly implementable guidelines for VET providers who want to introduce Peer Review in their quality assessment and development procedures. It is complemented by a practical Tool-box, developed within the project "Peer Review Extended", providing forms, checklists, additional information and recommendations in electronic format.

The procedure was further tested in another 4 transnational pilot Peer Reviews in "new" countries in 2007 and further 6 pilot Peer Reviews in different types of VET (including continuing VET) in 2008/2009. 

The European Peer Review Manual for initial VET is available online in 14 languages.

The English and the German versions are also available in print. For a printed version of the manual please contact us.
