Project : e-Portfolio for Human Resource Name : Acronym : Description :As part of the Bologna and Copenhagen Process the EU wide ePortfolio instrument europass (consisting of Curriculum Vitae, Language Passport, Mobility, Diploma Supplement and Certificate Supplement) was established. Due to the first evaluation results the ePortfolio campaign is successful but missing a more comprehensive and media-oriented ePortfolio. The objectives of the “ePortfolio for Human Resources” (eHR) are to extend the EU strategy by developing a media-oriented ePortfolio as the europass framework instruments are so far largely based on formal educational inputs. The media-oriented ePortfolio tool will be shaped by the current e-Learning and Web 2.0 developments. The other major aspect of the project will be to investigate the perception of ePortfolios as part of assessment processes within educational and vocational systems. The identification of critical success factors in the acceptance of ePortfolios could enhance the development of the ePortfolio-Strategy for Europe. The large-scale implementation of ePortfolio as assessment tool will enable the validation of competencies gained during non-formalized learning. Taking into account informal learning outcomes will lead to a more permeable educational system and will ease the transition processes between education and labor. The current focus on formal qualifications as dominating selection criteria will exclude competent, but informal trained individuals from employability. The outcomes of the eHR project will address (potential) users, promoters and recipients of ePortfolio as assessment instrument in educational and vocational fields. Cultivating a long-term collaboration of the eHR partners will be essential to to integrate the new developed ePortfolio instrument as assessment instrument in educational and human resource development programs. In a future project the eHR team will evaluate the implementation and reception of the extended EU ePortfolio strategy.
