2.1 Analysis of condition of education in the field of security in the Slovak Republic from
point of view of partner´s organisation of eSEC project.
2.1.1 Secondary school educational system
Secondary school general education and upbringing is realised in the Slovak Republic mainly at:
• grammar schools,
• secondary technical schools,
• conservatory. Grammar schools prepare students chiefly for study at universities. Further they prepare students to perform some work activities in administration, culture and other areas. General education and upbringing is also a part of education and upbringing at secondary technical schools and conservatories. Secondary school technical education and preparation is realised at secondary technical schools. Their students are being prepared mainly to performance of technical activities, mostly technical-economical, economic, pedagogical, medical, social – legal, administrational, artistic and cultural, eventually they are being prepared to study at university. Complex artistic and artistic – pedagogical education is provided at conservatories. They prepare students for professional artistic realisation and for teaching artistic and technical subjects in educational programs of artistic specialisation. To apply for university study can only that student who graduated from secondary school and got a certification about the school leaving exams. Kinds of schools that provide the school leaving examination are as follows:
• grammar school- study lasts 4 or 8 years according to which grade of elementary school the study is connected to,
• secondary technical school - 4 or 5-year study,
• conservatory - study lasts 4 or 6 years, in the field of dancing it lasts 8 years according to which grade of elementary school the study is connected to.
Considering teaching and preparation of students for practice from a point of view of serurity, there
are not many institutions in secondary school system which would provide such a type of education.
2.1.2 University educational system
University education and upbringing is realised in the Slovak Republic mainly at: • public universities,
• state universities,
• private universities,
• foreign universities.
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE

Public university is a public service and self-governing institution, that is established and cancelled by
the law. By the law is also set its name, categorization and its residence. If a public university is
devided into faculties, at its establishing there are also established these faculties.
Among state universities belong:
• military universities,
• police universities,
• medical universities.
At military universities there are students who are at military service. Police universities educate
experts mainly for Police force. It is possible to study here even if you are not employed in Police.
Medical universities educate students, who are preparing for individual categories of medical staff.
Private university is a legal entity with a residence in the Slovak Republic or with a residence in
a member country of EU or of states that are contractual parties of Agreement about European
Economic Area and Swiss Confederation, which was established or funded for education and
research, is entitled to operate as a private school, if Slovak government granted an approval for its
operation in the name of state.
Foreign universities provide university education in the territory of the Slovak Republic according to
legal regulations of the state of their residence based on granted entitlement issued by the Ministry
of Education of the Slovak Republic. The rights and duties of students of foreign universities are not
regulated by the law about universities, but by the legal regulations of the state of their residence.
About the equivalence of obtained certificate of education and certificates of education issued in the
Slovak Republic is decided equally as in case of certificates of education obtained by study abroad.
Universities are divided according to their character and range of their activities in the Slovak
Republic into:
• varsity colleges,
• non- varsity colleges.
Varsity colleges provide education in study programes of all three grades with significant share of
study programes of the second and the third grade.They realise study programes in connection with
their activities in the field of science, technique or the arts and in accordance with actual state and
development of these areas. The word „university“, or from it derived forms can have in their name
only universities.
Non-varsity colleges are marked as technical colleges, they provide university education
predominantely in the study programes of the first grade. University college, that reaches excellent
results in the field of science and technique as well as at realising of the study programes of the third
grade is research university.

General conditions to be accepted for study at university are fulfiled by those secondary school
graduants who have obtained school report of school leaving exam issued after successful passing of
school leaving exam after attending ordinarily 13, exceptionally after 12 years of study. Universities
usually arrange also entrance examinations.
Study at universities is provided in three grades:
• bachelor study program – 1.grade,
• magister, engineer and doctorate study program – 2.grade,
• doctorate study program– 3.grade.
Bachelor study program lasts at least three years and maximally four years of study (architecture,
fine art and design).
Magister, engineer and doctor study program lasts at least one year and maximally three years so
that standard length of study according to bachelor study program and a following study program of
the second grade in the same field or similar field of study was together at least five years. The study
can be also running continuously connecting first and second grade of university degree. In this case
the whole length of study is at least four years and maximally six years.
Standard length of doctorate study program in its internal form is at least three years and maximally
four years, in external form maximally five years.
Universities grant their graduants these academic degrees:
1.grade: bachelor(Bc.).
2.grade :

Rigorous exams as a supplement to the second grade of university study.
Graduants with academic degree of magister can take rigorous exam, part of which is also defending
their rigorous work in front of panel committee. Rigorous exam does not substitute the third grade of
university study. After successful completing of rigorous exam universities grant these academic
degrees :
• doctor of natural sciences (RNDr.) in natural sciences study programs,
• doctor of pharmacy (PharmDr.) in pharmaceutical study programs,
• doctor of philosophy (PhDr.) in social and artistic sciencies study programs,
• doctor of Laws (JUDr.) in legal study programs,
• doctor of pedagogy (PaedDr.) in teaching study programs and physical educational study programs ,
• doctor of theology (ThDr.) in theological study programs except study programs in the area of catholic theology.
System of assessment generally used by universities till the academic year 2002/2003:
• excellent (the hightest rate),
• very good,
• good (the lowest rate),
• did not pass.
In some school subjects students´ perfomances are assessed by a credit or classified credit. In this
case the requirements for results in particular subjects are lower than for exams.
Credit system since school year 2002/2003: Established standard load of student for the whole
academic year, which is expressed by number of 60 credits per academic school year, 30 credits per
semester, 20 credits per trimester.
Assessment by a mark according to this system differentiates six classifying grades :
• A (excellent) = 1 (excellent results),
• B (very good ) = 1,5 (overaverage results),
• C (good) = 2 (average results),
• D (satisfactorily) = 2,5 (accepted results),
• E (sufficiently) = 3 (results fulfil only minimal criteria),
• FX (insufficiently) = 4 (results don´t fulfil even minimal criteria).
Academic school year begins on the 1 of September of current year and finishes on the 31 of August
of the following year. It consists of two semesters ( winter and summer) or of three trimesters.The
organisation of academic year is set by the statute of faculty or by statute of university, unless the
university is divided into faculties.

Study program can be realised in the following forms of study :
• Full – time study,
• External form of study.
Full – time study form is characterised by daily attendance of student at educational activities.
External form of study includes mainly self – study and individual consultations.
Study program in both forms of study can be realised through following methods of study by:
• attendance method,

• combined method.
Attendance method of study is based on teaching where there is a direct contact of students with
their lectorer.
Distance method substitudes a direct contact of student with his/her teacher by communication
through means of communication, mainly means based on using information technologies.
2.1.3 System of lifelong education
Lifelong education represent all activities, that are realised throughout life with a goal of improving
knowledge, skills and abilities. Lifelong education as a fundamental principle of upbringing and
education applied in educational system of the Slovak Republic is created by:
• school education,
• further education following related grade of education achieved in school education
School education is upbringing and education realised in kindergartens, at elementary schools,
grammar schols, secondary technical schools, conservatories, at schools for children with special
pedagogical-educational needs and study in accredited study programs at universities. By successful
completion of school education students get a grade of education.
Further education is education in educational institutions of further education, which follow after
related school education and enable to obtain partial or full qualification or to complete, restore,
extend or deepen the qualification achieved in school education or to satisfy interests and obtain
competence to interfere into social life of civil society.By successful completion of further education
students cannot achieve a grade of education. Further education is realised in official langue of the
state and according to the interest of participants further education can be realised also in other

The results correspond with an average according to individual target groups, students would in
addition welcome Supply and demand on labour market, Chat and Blogs. Teachers and researchers
would prefer Scientific peer reviewed journal.
D. Evaluation of questionnaire regard to set aims
In terms of respondents´age the most frequent group is the group up to the age of 30 years, which
makes 72 per cent of all respondents. In terms of gender representation in questionnaire survey,
there is equal presence of genders, where 54 per cent of all respondents are men and 46 per cent are
women.66 per cent of respondents have no practical experience in the area of security and safety,
what is also confirmed by the fact, that 66 per cent of participated respondents were students. 14
per cent of respondents have experience in the range of 1 to 10 years, 10 per cent of respondents
have experience in the range of 11 to 20 years, 7 per cent of respondents have experience of 21 to
30 years, 2 per cent of respondents have experience in the range of 21 to 30 years and 1 per cent
have experience of more than 41 years. In the survey on whole there were participated 66 per cent
of students, 17 per cent of experts from practice (state administration/ self-government/ third
sector/ private sector), 16 per cent of teachers, eventually researchers of university/ institute
(assistant/ fellow/ lecturer /professor) and 1 per cent of „enthusiasts“.
Justification of need to create eSEC portal in terms of target groups
As many as 83 per cent of respondents have not met during their study /profession with a software/
tool/ service, which would help them choose study stay/ fellowship/ subjects based on by
themselves required parametres/ competences. As 57 per cent of survey respondents stated, at
most activities employment/ study requires further form of lifelong education, which is, however,
voluntary and they have an interest in it. After adding 12 per cent of respondents who stated that
education is compulsory, eventually it is required by law, this group makes together 69 per cent of
respondents.
Based on evaluation of question What are , in your view, deficiences by yourself used electronic
information sources, can be stated, that information sources don´t provide complex information,
which respondent requires at his/her activity/ study, there is insufficient updating of published
information, it does not provide terminological dictionary of stated technical terms and it requires
a membership in a particular organisation/ institution/ university, which should be at creating eSEC
portal avoided.
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
56
Other supporting argument for creating eSEC portal is, that as many as 74 per cent of respondents
have no particular idea at which institution they would obtain required competences, if they decide
for fellowship or foreign stay.
Requirements of target groups for individual eSEC portal modules in terms of content, form and
significance
As many as 74 per cent of respondents have no particular idea at which institution they would
obtain required competences if they decide for fellowship or foreign stay.Potential future users,
survey respondents would most welcome from preparing eSEC portal modules these ones: Published
technical works/ textbooks/surveys, Professional journal focused on practice, Preparing events –
trainings, seminars, exhibitions, conferences, workshops, Terminological dictionary, List of
educational institutions from the field. According to individual target groups the results correspond
with an average, students would in addition welcome Supply and demand of labour market, Chat,
Blogs. Teachers and researchers would also prefer Scientific peer reviewed journal.
Acquisition of information sources usable within the portal modules from target groups is elaborated
and written out of respondents´ answers in detail in next part of this document, as a separate part.
Providing information about realisation of project to target groups
Yet through questionnaire survey there was an effort to spread information about preparing project
eSEC and to present eSEC portal (http://www.esecportal.eu/), which is temporarily operating
through information website http://esec2012.blogspot.com/ (where there is until origin of the portal
redirected also registrated site of portal http://www.esecportal.eu/).
By follow-up question (Providing you are interested in just realising European project and you have
an interest to participate in preparing portal eSEC devoting to issue of Security and Safety, please,
state your contact, or what form of participation you can offer) we tried to get contacts to mailing
list, whose members we are gradually going to send information and news about eSEC portal.
From complex anylising of respondents´answers it is possible to state a relevance of creating the
portal, which in the area of security and safety will create environment that supports achieving
competences in the area of security and safety whether directly through the portal, through the
sources on the portal or indirectly through individual links and portal options.

57
Thanks to the results of this analysis we will proceed at gradual completing of the portal. Last but not
least it is needed to emphasize the fact, that the survey did not prove the existence of similar tool
neither in the area of security and safety nor in other related disciplines.
E. Acquisition of information sources usable within portal modules from target groups (Question: 7,
12, 14).
Respondents could voluntarily leave a message to information sources used by themselves, from
answers of 145 respondents there were selected these information sources:

3 Introduction of the study analysis in Portugal
Provided material is dealing with a survey in form of analysis about condition of education in field of
security and safety in Portugal.
The first part of the survey is devided into five units and concluded by SWOT analysis of existing
educational institutions and their activities and maping a condition of further education in this field
for needs of creating eSEC portal.
It includes general characteristics of secondary school educational system, general characteristics of
university educational system, general characteristics of lifelong educational system, grant agencies
supporting individual grades of education and individual fields of science, education in the field of
security on individual grades of education and SWOT analysis of education in the field of security in
given country from partner´s country´s point of view.
The whole document „Analysis Study“ includes analyses of environment in individual regions,
analysed by partner organisations of project eSEC focused on competences required by practice and
academic society in the field of security. A part of this material is the analysis of potential eSEC
users´structure and their requirements, the analysis of the structure and representation of expected
target groups of eSEC portal users: students, pedagogues, scientific employees, expert practice,
analysis of requirements for interactivity, user-friendly extremity, graphical surroundings and
multimediality of eSEC portal´s modules in connection to supposed skills of target groups users in
using ICT. In the conclusion of the document there is a partial analysis of eSEC portal´s modules
content based on analysis of required competences and its users´ structure, which defines the need
of individual moduls focused on thematic fields of security.

3.1 Analysis of condition of education in the field of security in Portugal from point of view
of partner´s organisation of eSEC project
3.1.1 Secondary school educational system
Portuguese educational system is structured in four levels: the Pre-school, not mandatory and
destined for children between 2 and 6 years; Basic level, which is organized in three cycles and
constitutes mandatory minimum education, 1st Cycle (4 years of schooling), 2nd Cycle (2 years) and
3rd Cycle (3 years); the Secondary level, with 3 more years of schooling; and then the higher
education.
The higher education is adequate to the Bologna process, generally 3 years for the first Cycle
(Licenciatura) and two more for the Master. The PhD has generally a minimum of 3 years of study
and research, depending on the areas.
Considering teaching and preparation of students for practice from a point of view of security, there
are only small aproaches during the secundary level. Neverthless there should be mentioned the two
non superior schools: the national firemen school (Escola Nacional de Bombeiros, www.enb.pt) that
prepares the volunteer firemem according to their hierarchi and needs; and also the Firemen
Sappers School of Lisbon (Escola do Regimento de Sapadores Bombeiros de Lisboa,
www.rsblisboa.com.pt).
3.1.2 University educational system
Portuguese higher education network is presently constituted by: 13 public universities (integrating
52 organic units); 1 religious based university (integrating 16 organic units); 15 State-run polytechnic
institutes (that integrate 99 organic units); 6 institutions of military and police education; 48 private
or cooperative university institutions; 62 private and cooperative polytechnic institutions;
The higher education system in Portugal is divided in two main sub systems, the Universities and the
Polytechnic Institutes. The university system has a strong theoretical basis and is highly research-
oriented while the polytechnic system provides a more practical training and is more profession-
oriented.
The higher education system comprises the public higher education and the private higher
education. To the public higher education belong institutions of the state and the foundations for it
created. The private higher education is made up of institutions owned by private entities and
cooperatives.
In the Portuguese higher education system the student access is conditioned by the numerus clausus.
The number of vacancies/places for each institution/degree is fixed annually. Students enter the
higher education system trough a national access procedure that is run by the Ministry of Science,
Technology and Higher Education. They are then placed in a graduation - institution in accordance to
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
63
their preferences and classifications. After 12 years of schooling (9 years of basic education and 3
years of secondary education), the condition that makes the candidate eligible for higher education is
the combination of classifications obtained at the secondary level and the grades obtained in the
12th year at national level exams, in the essential disciplines for the desired graduation. Each higher
education institution/degree can stipulate that a student undertakes one or two entry exams and the
student is required to obtain at least 95 points out of 200.
Through the classification obtained in these entry exams and the average of the final marks obtained
in secondary education (10th, 11th and 12th year) the students’ mark is calculated.
Any citizen over 23 years old who does not have the secondary education diploma (12th grade) can
also apply to a limited number of vacant places available, through special examination which includes
an interview.
Another important way to access to higher education is by Technology Specialization Courses (CET), a
post-secondary non-higher formation. For these students also a limited number of vacancies is
available
Polytechnics Institutes conferred licentiate and master academic degree, while University Institutes
conferred licenciado, master and doctor academic degree. Licentiate and master academic degree
are based in credit, the unit's work student.
The cycle of studies leading to a licentiate degree is 180-240 credits, and a normal length between six
and eight semesters of students' work. The classification is expressed in the range of 10 -20 numeric,
a scale integer 0-20. The cycle of studies leading to master's degree has 90 to 120 credits and a
normal length between three and four semesters of work.
The academic degree of Master is awarded like licentiate degree. The cycle of studies leading to PhD
degree integrates the development of a thesis, developed for this purpose, suitable for nature of the
branch of knowledge or specialty.
Academic school year begins on September of current year and finishes on the 31 of July of the
following year. It consists of two semesters (first and second).
In Polytechnic Institute of Leiria, some study program couses can be realised through following
methods of study:
• attendance method,
• distance method,
• Combined method.
Attendance method of study is based on teaching where there is a direct contact of students with
their lectorer.

Distance method substitudes a direct contact of student with his/her teacher by communication
through means of communication, mainly means based on using information technologies.
3.1.3 System of lifelong education
Lifelong education represents all activities that are realised throughout life with a goal of improving
knowledge, skills and abilities. Lifelong education as a fundamental principle of upbringing and
education applied in educational system of Portugal is created by:
• school education,
• further education following related grade of education achieved in school education.
School education is upbringing and education realised in kindergartens, at elementary schools,
grammar schols, secondary technical schools, conservatories, at schools for children with special
pedagogical-educational needs and study in accredited study programs at universities. By successful
completion of school education students get a grade of education.
Further education is education in educational institutions of further education, which follow after
related school education and enable to obtain partial or full qualification or to complete, restore,
extend or deepen the qualification achieved in school education or to satisfy interests and obtain
competence to interfere into social life of civil society.By successful completion of further education
students cannot achieve a grade of education. Further education is realised in official langue of the
state and according to the interest of participants further education can be realised also in other
than official language.
Other kinds of lifelong education are:
• other technical education in accredited education program, which leads to completion, restoration, extension or deepening of qualification required to performance of technical activity,
• retraining/requalification education in accredited education program, which leads to obtaining partial qualification or full qualification – professional competence for one or more work activities in other profession than in profession for which a person achieved qualification through school education,
• continuous education in education programs, by which a participant of further education completes, extends or restores qualification as a condition to perform professional activity,
• interest-education, civil education, senior education and other kinds of education, through which a participant of further education satisfies his/her interests, interferes in social life and generally develops his/her personality.
Education institutions realise accredited education programs and non-accredited education
programs. Education programs can be realised by:
• attendance form,
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
65
• distance form,
• combined form.
Education institutions within the bounds of lifelong education are:
• secondary technical schools, artistic schools, language schools and universities that realise also education programs,
• legal entities, whose subject of business is education and activities closely connected with education,
• physical persons –entrepreneurs, whose subject of business is education or activities closely connected with education.
3.2 Grant agencies supporting individual grades of education in Portugal
The main support for research and development within Portugal is the “Fundação para a Ciência e a
Tecnologia (FCT)”. The mission of FCT consists in continuously promoting the advancement of
scientific and technological knowledge in Portugal, exploring opportunities that become available in
any scientific or technological domain to attain the highest international standards in the creation of
knowledge, and to stimulate their diffusion and contribution to improve education, health,
environment, and the quality of life and well being of the general public.

addition welcome Supply and demand on labour market, Chat and Blogs. Teachers and researchers
would prefer Scientific peer reviewed journal.
D. Evaluation of questionnaire regard to set aims
In terms of respondents´age the most frequent group is the group up to the age of 35 years, which
makes 64 per cent of all respondents. In terms of gender representation in questionnaire survey,
there is a majority of men respondents 80%. 26 per cent of respondents have less then a year of
experience in the area of security and safety, what is. 26 per cent of respondents have experience in
the range of 1 to 5 years, 15 per cent of respondents have experience in the range of 5 to 10 years,
12 per cent of respondents have experience of 10 to 15 years, 11 per cent of respondents have
experience in the range of 15 to 20 years. In the survey on whole there were participated 26 per cent
of students, 57 per cent of experts from practice (state administration/ self-government/ third
sector/ private sector), 11 per cent of teachers, eventually researchers of university/ institute
(assistant/ fellow/ lecturer /professor) and 6 per cent of „enthusiasts“.

Justification of need to create eSEC portal in terms of target groups
As many as 90 per cent of respondents have not met during their study /profession with a software/
tool/ service, which would help them choose study stay/ fellowship/ subjects based on by
themselves required parametres/ competences. As 40 per cent of survey respondents stated, at
most activities employment/ study requires further form of lifelong education, which is, however,
voluntary and they have an interest in it. After adding 22 per cent of respondents who stated that
education is compulsory, eventually it is required by law, this group makes together 62 per cent of
respondents.
Based on evaluation of question What are , in your view, deficiences by yourself used electronic
information sources, can be stated, that information sources don´t provide complex information,
which respondent requires at his/her activity/ study, there is insufficient updating of published
information, it does not provide terminological dictionary of stated technical terms and it requires
a membership in a particular organisation/ institution/ university, which should be at creating eSEC
portal avoided.
Other supporting argument for creating eSEC portal is, that as many as 73 per cent of respondents
have no particular idea at which institution they would obtain required competences, if they decide
for fellowship or foreign stay.
Requirements of target groups for individual eSEC portal modules in terms of content, form and
significance
As many as 73 per cent of respondents have no particular idea at which institution they would obtain
required competences if they decide for fellowship or foreign stay.Potential future users, survey
respondents would most welcome from preparing eSEC portal modules these ones: Published
technical works/ textbooks/surveys, Professional journal focused on practice, Preparing events –
trainings, seminars, exhibitions, conferences, workshops, Terminological dictionary, List of
educational institutions from the field. According to individual target groups the results correspond
with an average, students would in addition welcome Supply and demand of labour market. Teachers
and researchers would also prefer scientific peer reviewed journal.
Providing information about realisation of project to target groups
Through questionnaire survey there was an effort to spread information about preparing project
eSEC and to present eSEC portal (http://www.esecportal.eu/), which is temporarily operating
through information website http://esec2012.blogspot.com/ (where there is until origin of the portal
redirected also registrated site of portal http://www.esecportal.eu/).
By follow-up question (Providing you are interested in just realising European project and you have
an interest to participate in preparing portal eSEC devoting to issue of Security and Safety, please,
state your contact, or what form of participation you can offer) we tried to get contacts to mailing
list, whose members we are gradually going to send information and news about eSEC portal.
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
101
From complex anylising of respondents´answers it is possible to state a relevance of creating the
portal, which in the area of security and safety will create environment that supports achieving
competences in the area of security and safety whether directly through the portal, through the
sources on the portal or indirectly through individual links and portal options.
Thanks to the results of this analysis we will proceed at gradual completing of the portal. Last but not
least it is needed to emphasize the fact, that the survey did not prove the existence of similar tool
neither in the area of security and safety nor in other related disciplines.
E. Acquisition of information sources usable within portal modules from target groups (Question: 7,
12, 14).
Respondents could voluntarily leave a message to information sources used by themselves, from
answers of 115 respondents there were selected these information sources:
- "IP15, Directiva ATEX, Manual de implementação da directiva ATEX, Manual de exploração de
segurança contra incêndios em edifícios"

4 Introduction of the study analysis in Czech republic
This document gives an overview of educational situation in field of security and safety in the Czech
Republic.
The plan of this survey is as follows. In first section you can find five units. The rest of the document
reports a SWOT analysis of offered educational institutions and their relating activities. First unit
deals with the general characteristic of the Czech education system. This includes background of
secondary, university and lifelong educational systems. Next unit offers an overview of grant
agencies supporting research and development in the Czech Republic. Finally, a SWOT analysis of
education in the field of security in given country from partner´s country´s point of view is presented.
The whole document „Analysis Study“ includes analyses of environment in individual regions,
analyzed by partner organizations of project eSEC focused on competences required by practice and
academic society in the field of security. A part of this material is the analysis of potential eSEC users´
structure and their requirements, the analysis of the structure and representation of expected target
groups of eSEC portal users: students, pedagogues, scientific employees, expert practice, analysis of
requirements for interactivity, user-friendly extremity, graphical surroundings and multimediality of
eSEC portal´s modules in connection to supposed skills of target groups users in using ICT. In the
conclusion of the document there is a partial analysis of eSEC portal´s modules content based on
analysis of required competences and its users´ structure, which defines the need of individual
modules focused on thematic fields of security.
4.1 Analysis of condition of education in the field of security in the Czech republic from
point of view of partner´s organisation of eSEC project
4.1.1 Secondary school educational system
Secondary education in the Czech Republic comprises three main types of schools:
• grammar schools,
• secondary technical schools and vocational schools,
• conservatory.
Grammar School in the Czech Republic prepares its students to go on to higher education
institutions, such as universities or colleges. The program usually takes eight years, after 5th year of
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
104
basic school or four years - after 9th year of basic school. However, it is also possible to change to
Grammar School (language focused) after the 7th year in six-year secondary general school.
In either case there are exams at the end. If passed, a secondary school leaving certificate, is issued.
This allows the student to study at a tertiary education institution.
Technical School takes four years and students usually come to this school after successfully finishing
grade 9 at a basic school. Technical school is finished with exams for the leaving exam as well.
However, classes focus on technical subjects.
Conservatory is an alternative to a Grammar School and has a special focus on either dance, music
and drama. The programs that focus on dancing usually take eight years, beginning with grade 6
whereas the programs that focus on music and drama only take six years. With the successful
completion of a conservatory two diplomas are issued. The first one is the leaving exam allowing you
to start studying. The second one, the absolutorium, is a special final certificate for the participation
in dance, or music and drama classes, respectively.
Special schools (also called apprentice schools) train for special work. This includes technical colleges,
business academies, agricultural and nursing. Study lasts four years.
Vocational schools in the Czech Republic take three or four years. The focus of the programs is
practical experience and they are tailored towards specific jobs (branches of industry, agriculture,
medicine, national economy…). Four year programs at a vocational school prepare students to take
exams for their leaving exam whereas three year programs lead to a vocational certificate, the
vocational certificate. The latter does not entitle you to study at a tertiary institution. Those who
have completed their upper secondary education in the fields of study requiring apprenticeship
certificates can continue in follow-up courses, which are completed with a school-leaving
examination or they may extend their qualifications in shortened study courses.
Pupils and students are evaluated by marks from 1 to 5, 1 is the best, 5 is the worst. Considering
teaching and preparation of students for practice from a point of view of security, there are not
many institutions in secondary school system which would provide such a type of education. Mostly
you can attend Secondary Nursing School or Police Academy.
4.1.2 University educational system
By law, higher education institutions are of two types:
• university,
• non-university.
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
105
University type higher education institutions provides all levels of study programs (Bachelor’s,
Master’s and Doctoral) and carry out associated scholarly, research, development, artistic or other
creative activities.
Non-university type higher education institutions usually offer only Bachelor’s degree programs, but
never Doctoral programs. They carry out associated scholarly, research, development, artistic or
other creative activities.
Czech university education consists of 3 types of higher education institution:
• public universities,
• state universities,
• private universities.
Public higher education institutions are entitled to manage their own property although a substantial
part of their activity is directly financed by the state. Funds for higher education institutions are set
annually by the Act on State Budget. Public higher education is offered by universities and colleges.
Universities perform research, science and development activities in addition to teaching, while
colleges focus on teaching. Public universities offer great varieties of different subjects, from
humanities, business and economics up to medical subjects and law. Their educational emphasis is
on theoretical knowledge and university programs take three to five years.
Although public universities do not prepare their students for specific jobs in a way that private
universities do, they are still perceived as more prestigious than private ones. Higher education is
free except for students who have exceeded the standard length of study, are going for a second
degree or are studying in a program offered in a foreign language.
Public universities offer a comprehensive range of study fields and subjects within Bachelor, Master
and Doctoral (Ph.D.) study programs as well as non-degree courses.
State higher education institutions (University of Defence and Police Academy) are established by the
relevant ministries (Defence and the Interior). Their autonomy is limited: they do not have a Board of
Trustees, they have no autonomy in salaries, and their budget is linked to the budget of the relevant
ministry. Their educational activities are partly governed by the appropriate legal regulations
applying to the field of defense and domestic affairs, respectively.
Private higher education institutions can only function as legal entities after obtaining the approval of
the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports which is based on the recommendation of the
Accreditation Commission (seventeen of them have the status of public benefit organization). The
first private colleges were set up around the year 2000. The most popular subjects offered by private
colleges are business, finance, and law. The quality of the programs is guaranteed by the Ministry of
Education, Youth and Sports. Private colleges usually offer bachelor´s degrees, although a few have
master´s programs.

The minimum requirement for admission to a higher education institution is secondary education
completed with a school-leaving examination. The requirement for admission to a Master's program
following on from a Bachelor's program is the successful completion of the Bachelor's program. The
requirement for admission to a Doctoral program is the successful completion of a Master’s program.
Students may apply for admission to several fields of study. Each higher education institution decides
on the number of enrolled students and on specific admission proceedings (results of entrance
examination, upper secondary school results, approval of credits from previous studies of other fields
of study or of tertiary professional school, etc.). In general, admission to studies at higher educational
institutions is limited primarily by the capacity of each institution. This number of students which will
be funded in the academic year is limited at the central level by the amount of money allocated to
school through formula funding.
The admission proceedings usually include an entrance examination, in particular a written test, an
oral examination or both. If the number of applicants who meet the conditions is higher than the
maximum number which can be enrolled, applicants are ranked based on the examination results.
Study programs have to be accredited. The accreditation is granted by the Ministry of Education,
Youth and Sports based on an opinion of the Accreditation Commission, which is established by the
Government. Within the accreditation process, decisions are also taken on authorization to award
academic degrees. The Accreditation Commission also carries out an evaluation of faculties in the
individual specializations.
Study programs consist of three grades:
• Bachelor study program,
• Magister study program,
• Doctoral study program
Each of programs may be in:
• a day form study (full-time),
• a distance form,
• a combination of both.
Each study program is usually divided into specializations. Fields of study are divided according to an
approved list of the Classification of Core Fields that applies nation-wide. There are more than 150
core fields of study at higher education institutions. The classification of fields of study corresponds
essentially with the traditional classification of academic fields, e.g. humanities, social sciences,
science, medicine, education and teacher training, mathematics, computer science, engineering,
economics, agriculture, military and police sciences, arts and architecture, physical education and
sport.

Bachelor’s study programs are focused on professional training and provide a basis for studies in
Master’s study programs. The programs last 3-4 years and graduates acquire the qualification.
Bachelor's degree programs prevail at private institutions. Bachelor’s degree studies end with a final
state examination and part of which is usually the defense of a thesis.
The academic degree obtained is:
• bachelor (Bc.),
• bachelor in the field of art (BcA.).
Master’s study programs aim to provide theoretical knowledge based on the latest scientific findings,
research and development, at mastering their applications and to develop creative skills. These study
programs follow on from Bachelor’s degrees. Their standard length is 1-3 years. If the character of
the study programs so requires, accreditation can be granted to a Master’s degree programs (4-6
years long), which does not follow on from a Bachelor’s one.
Therefore the standard study program is between three and seven years. Master’s degree studies
end with a state examination part of which is the defense of a thesis.
The academic degree awarded is:
• Magister (Mgr.),
• Magister in the field of art (MgA.),
• Engineer (Ing.),
• Engineer Architect (Ing. arch.).
Students of medicine, veterinary medicine and hygiene are the exception. They finish their studies
with a state examination – Rigorous Exam – and they are awarded the degree:
• doctor of medicine (MUDr.),
• dentist (MDDr.),
• doctor of veterinary medicine (MVDr.).
A Doctoral study program can follow the completion of a Master's program. It is aimed at scientific
work, independent creative activity in the area of research and development or at independent
theoretical and creative skills in art. It is offered solely in universities and lasts 3-4 years.
Doctoral studies finish with a state doctoral examination and defense of a thesis. The degree for all
fields of study is:
• doctor (Ph.D.),
• doctor theology (Th.D.).

As a document attesting to the closure of studies and the awarding of particular academic degree is
the higher education diploma and diploma supplement.
Having been awarded the academic degree, magistr students can sit a state examination Rigorious
Exam which includes the defense of a thesis – Rigorious Work. Those who have passed the exam and
successfully defended their thesis are awarded the degree of doctor; the abbreviation differing
according to the field of study:
• doctor of Laws JUDr.,
• doctor of philosophy PhDr.,
• doctor of natural sciences RNDr.,
• doctor of pharmacy PharmDr.,
• doctor of theology ThDr.,
• doctor of catholic theology (the degree is – licentiate) – ThLic..
The academic year lasts 12 months; the start is fixed by the head of the higher education institution.
Courses are divided into semesters, years or blocks, which are composed of a period of teaching, an
examination period and a vacation.
The structure of the academic year is decided by each institution. It usually begins in October and is
divided into two semesters: winter and summer, with approx. a five-week examination period after
each semester. The summer vacation is in July and August.
Universities use followings types of grading:
a) 4-point grade system:
• excellent,
• very good,
• good,
• did not pass. b) six-grade system with half-grades between 1 & 2 and 2 & 3, grades are represented by
letters A-F. The grades are then:
• A (1) excellent,
• B (1-) very good,
• C (2) good,
• D (2-) satisfactorily,
• E (3) sufficiently,
• F insufficiently.
4.1.3 System of lifelong education
Lifelong education constitutes a basic conceptual change in the approach to education and its
organizational principles, where all the potential for learning – whether in traditional educational
institutions in the framework of the educational system or outside of it – is seen as a single
interconnected unit, that facilitates diverse and numerous transitions between education and
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
109
employment and that permits obtaining of the same qualifications and competence in various ways
and at any time during one’s lifetime.
The formal educational system forms the essential basis for this concept of lifelong learning, but
constitutes only one of its parts. Everybody should have the opportunity to receive education at
various times during their lifetime in accordance with their capabilities, requirements and interests.
Lifelong learning conceives all learning as an uninterrupted continuum “from the cradle to the
grave”. It is based on good basic and general education for everyone, from the early childhood.
Lifelong learning can be divided into two basic stages, denoted as initial and further education.
Initial education includes:
• basic education,
• secondary education,
• tertiary education.
Basic education (primary and lower secondary), which has a general character and usually
corresponds to the period of compulsory education.
Secondary education (upper secondary), which has a general or vocational character, which is
terminated by a school-leaving examination, apprentice’s certificate or final examination. Secondary
education also encompasses follow-up study for graduates of secondary education with apprentice’s
certificates, ending with a school leaving examination.
Tertiary education encompasses a broad sector of available education, usually following after passing
a school-leaving examination. It provides specialized professional or artistic education. It includes
higher education provided by universities and higher educational institutions, tertiary technical
education provided by tertiary technical schools and, to a certain degree, also higher artistic
education in conservatories. Initial education occurs primarily at a young age and can be terminated
at any time after completing compulsory education through entering the labor market or joining the
economically inactive population.
Further education occurs after attaining a certain level of education or following the first entrance of
the learner into the labor market. Further education can emphasize a diverse spectrum of
knowledge, skills and competences important for participation in the working, civic and personal life
In the ideal case, lifelong learning is considered to be a continuous process; however, in actual fact, it
consists in the continual preparedness of an individual to learn rather than in continuous study. In
this, it is based on the principles that a specific acquired competence is not as valuable as the ability
to learn. Thus, there is a tendency to speak rather about lifelong learning rather than lifelong
education, to emphasize the importance of the learning activities of each individual that are not
organized in character, i.e. independent learning, e.g. at work, during stays in nature, at cultural
events, etc.

Thus, lifelong learning includes:
• formal education,
• non-formal education,
• informal learning.
Formal education, which is performed in educational institutions, usually in schools. Its functions,
targets, contents, organizational forms and methods of assessment are defined by legal regulations.
This encompasses obtaining levels of education that usually follow one from another (basic
education, secondary education, secondary education with an apprenticeship certificate, secondary
education with a school-leaving examination, tertiary technical education in conservatories, tertiary
technical education, higher education (university education), whose completion is confirmed by the
relevant certificate (certificate, diploma, etc.).
Non-formal education, which emphasizes gaining knowledge, skills and competences that can
improve the social and working position of the individual. Non-formal education is provided by
employers, private educational institutes, NGO’s, schools and other organizations. These include
organized leisure time activities for children, adolescents and adults, foreign language courses,
computer courses, retraining courses and also short-term training and lectures. This kind of
education requires the participation of a professional instructor, teacher or trained organizer. It does
not lead to obtaining a level of education.
Informal learning, which is understood as a process of obtaining knowledge, acquiring skills and
competences from everyday experience and activities at work, in the family and in one’s leisure time.
It also includes self-education, where the learner has no way of testing his acquired knowledge (e.g.
television language courses). In contrast to formal and non-formal education, it is not organized, is
usually not systematic and is not institutionally coordinated. Lifelong learning assumes
complementariness and intermingling of these forms of learning throughout one’s entire lifetime,
basically always and everywhere. Consequently, the term “lifelong” is also not wholly satisfactory, as
it emphasizes only the temporal dimension of education. Consequently, recently the term “lifewide”
learning has been coined, emphasizing that learning occurs in all environments and life situations.
Adult education at institutions offering courses leading to a defined educational qualification is
financed by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports as follows: at the universities on the same
basis as for full-time studies, at the secondary schools based on a certain percentage of the average
cost per pupil in full-time studies for the particular field of study depending on the form of education
(5 per cent in e-learning, 15 per cent in distance study to 40 per cent in evening study or in a form
combining all forms). The only exceptions are courses in which adults can complete their basic
education, which are fully funded.
The funding of educational activities at the institutional level is up to the employer. Total company
expenditure on training is assessed by a sample survey.

Retraining is financed from various sources. Unemployed people registered as seeking work are
entitled to attend retraining sessions financed fully by Labor Offices, which can also cover expenses
for transport, accommodation and meals from the state budget contributions.
4.2 Grant agencies supporting individaul grades of education in Czech republic
In the Czech Republic there are numerous Grant Agencies and organizations providing financial
support to scientist and research institutions such as:
• GAČR - Czech Science Foundation
• GAAV - Grant Agency of the Academy of Sciences of the CR
• IGA MZ – Internal Grant Agency of the Ministry of Health
• Grant Agency of the Charles University
• NAEP – National Agency for European Educational Programs
The Czech Science Foundation – GACR was established in 1993 as an independent institution. It
promotes progress over the whole range of basic research in the Czech Republic. The main function
of the Czech Science Foundation is to provide, on the basis of public tender, financial support for
research projects submitted by individuals or organizations. The main source of the funds available is
the state budget, but contributions from other sources are also possible. The Grant Agency provides
financial support to scientific projects that are part of so-called standard project programs, doctoral
projects, postdoctoral projects and projects from the programs of the European Science Foundation.
Basic aims of the Czech Science Foundation are:
• to promote research through long-term funding, based on the peer reviewed evaluation of submitted proposals, science-policy expertise and global cooperation
• to provide financial support for excellent research projects and at the same time to audit the effective use of the financial means
• to raise the public understanding of science and to enhance the esteem and social status of scientific research
• to develop high-quality research environments and to improve scientific career opportunities
• to support multi- and interdisciplinary research projects and communication
• to represent Czech science among international research organizations and in national and international scientific bodies
• to cooperate and support international scientific co-operation on research projects through agreements with research councils all over the world
The Czech Science Foundation is administered by a Presidium appointed by the Government of the
Czech Republic, which is assisted by Discipline Committees. The work of the GACR is monitored by an
independent Supervisory Board appointed by the Czech Parliament. All organizational and
administrative work is provided by the GACR Office.

The Grant Agency of the CR announces a public competition for the solution of the grant projects of
basic research in specified disciplines and approved programs. The announcement is published in the
Commercial Journal and in the information system of research and development;
The grant applicant may draw up and submit a grant application for the public competition in the
following disciplines of basic research:
• technical sciences,
• natural science,
• medical sciences,
• human and social sciences,
• agricultural sciences.
The public competition may be entered by a natural or legal person with the seat of business in the
Czech Republic, the organizational components of the state or territorial self-governing units or the
organizational units of the Ministry of Defence or the Ministry of the Interior that work in research
and development. The research and development public competition may also be entered by a legal
person with the seat of business in an EU member state or in a state that is part of the European
Economic Area or the citizen of such a state, if they meet the competence conditions.
More information about GAČR are available at agency website www.gacr.cz
The Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic (AS CR) is set up as a complex of 53 public research
institutions with the Academy Head Office as an internal organization unit. The Academy employs
about 7,000 employees more than a half of whom are researchers with university degrees.
List of all institutions of the Academy of Sciences, including contacts, can be found here:
www.cas.cz/en/institutes.php.
The primary mission of AS CR and its institutes is to conduct basic research in a broad spectrum of
the natural, technical and social sciences and the humanities.
This research, whether highly specialized or interdisciplinary in nature, aims to advance
developments in scientific knowledge at the international level, while also taking into account the
specific needs of both Czech society and national culture. Scientists of the Academy institutes also
participate in education, particularly through doctoral study programs for young researchers and by
teaching at universities as well. The Academy also fosters collaborations between applied research
and industry. The integration of Czech science into the international context is being promoted by
means of numerous joint international research projects and through the exchange of scientists with
counterpart institutions abroad.

The Academy of Sciences is financed primarily from the state budget. The pattern of research funding
at the Academy conforms to current international standards. In addition to basic institutional
financing of research objectives of Academy institutes, target-oriented financing is being more widely
practiced to carry out research projects and grants selected on the basis of public competition. AS CR
was the first institution in the Czech Republic to establish its own Grant Agency (www.gaav.cz) which
financially supports research projects selected through a peer-review procedure involving reviewers
from abroad. Individual Academy institutes obtain additional financial resources by participating in
national as well as international research programs.
In order to speed up the process of transformation of scientific knowledge into practice, the
Academy opens The Program of Targeted Research and Development
(www.cas.cz/cz/Dokumenty/infoprog.htm).
The Technology Center of the AS CR (www.tc.cz/) is also involved in this area, as it contributes to
cooperation with industry mainly through its activities in technology transfers, the search for industry
partners for research and development projects and the support of the formation and development
of small innovative companies in the area of business. The Technology Center of the ASCR serves as
National Information Centre for European Research: provides information and advisory services
related to the EU Framework Programs (www.cordis.lu/), monitors Czech participation in
international research cooperation programs and coordinates and manages methodically the
national information network NINET. The Technology Centre has designed, together with several
Academy departments, the project of the Scientific Park of the ASCR, whose concept is based on a
model well-tried in EU countries.
Internal Grant Agency of the Ministry of Health is scientific advisory body of the Ministry of Health of
the Czech Republic for field of health research and development. The main function is advisory body
for evaluation of accepted project designs in public competition of health research and development.
More information you can find at www.mzcr.cz.
Most Czech research organizations (including the Institutes of the Academy of Sciences CR) will be
placed on the register of public research institutions as of 1 January 2007. During the second quarter
of 2007 at the latest all Academy Institutes will begin to function properly as public research
institutions in compliance with the valid laws as well as the Statutes of the ASCR.

D. Evaluation of questionnaire regard to set aims
In terms of respondents´ age the most frequent group is the group up to the age of 30 years, which
makes 86 per cent of all respondents. In terms of gender representation in questionnaire survey,
there is 81 per cent of men and 19 per cent of women. 63 per cent of respondents have no practical
experience in the area of security and safety. 30 per cent of respondents have experience in the
range of 1 to 10 years, 3 per cent of respondents have experience in the range of 11 to 20 years, 4
per cent of respondents have experience of 21 to 30 years and no respondent has more than 30
years of experience. In the survey on whole there were participated 76 per cent of students, 11 per
cent of teachers, eventually researchers of university/ institute (assistant/ fellow/ lecturer
/professor) , 10 per cent of experts from practice (state administration/ self-government/ third
sector/ private sector), and 3 per cent of „enthusiasts“.
Justification of need to create eSEC portal in terms of target groups
As many as 87 per cent of respondents have not met during their study /profession with a software/
tool/ service, which would help them choose study stay/ fellowship/ subjects based on by
themselves required parameters/ competences. As 59 per cent of survey respondents stated, at
most activities employment/ study requires further form of lifelong education, which is, however,
voluntary and they have an interest in it. After adding 6 per cent of respondents who stated that
education is compulsory, eventually it is required by law, this group makes together 65 per cent of
respondents.
Based on evaluation of question What are , in your view, deficiencies by yourself used electronic
information sources, can be stated, that information sources don´t provide complex information,
which respondent requires at his/her activity/ study, there is insufficient updating of published
information, it does not provide terminological dictionary of stated technical terms and it requires
a membership in a particular organization/ institution/ university, which should be at creating eSEC
portal avoided.
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
164
Other supporting argument for creating eSEC portal is, that as many as 80 per cent of respondents
have no particular idea at which institution they would obtain required competences, if they decide
for fellowship or foreign stay.
Requirements of target groups for individual eSEC portal modules in terms of content, form and
significance
As many as 80 per cent of respondents have no particular idea at which institution they would obtain
required competences if they decide for fellowship or foreign stay. Potential future users, survey
respondents would most welcome from preparing eSEC portal modules these ones: Professional
journal focused on practice, Preparing events – trainings, seminars, exhibitions, conferences,
workshops, Published technical works/ textbooks/surveys,
Thesis and qualification works from division/field, Supply and demand of labor market and List of
educational institutions from the field. According to individual target groups, students would in
addition welcome Terminological dictionary, Chat, Blogs. Teachers and researchers would also prefer
Scientific peer reviewed journal.
Acquisition of information sources usable within the portal modules from target groups is elaborated
and written out of respondents´ answers in detail in next part of this document, as a separate part.
Providing information about realization of project to target groups
Yet through questionnaire survey there was an effort to spread information about preparing project
eSEC and to present eSEC portal (http://www.esecportal.eu/) which is temporarily operating through
information website http://esec2012.blogspot.com/ (where there is until origin of the portal
redirected also registrated site of portal http://www.esecportal.eu/).
By follow-up question (Providing you are interested in just realising European project and you have
an interest to participate in preparing portal eSEC devoting to issue of Security and Safety, please,
state your contact, or what form of participation you can offer) we tried to get contacts to mailing
list, whose members we are gradually going to send information and news about eSEC portal.
From complex analyzing of respondents´ answers it is possible to state a relevance of creating the
portal, which in the area of security and safety will create environment that supports achieving
competences in the area of security and safety whether directly through the portal, through the
sources on the portal or indirectly through individual links and portal options.
Thanks to the results of this analysis we will proceed at gradual completing of the portal. Last but not
least it is needed to emphasize the fact, that the survey did not prove the existence of similar tool
neither in the area of security and safety nor in other related disciplines.

5 Introduction of the study analysis in Slovenia
Provided material is dealing with a survey in form of analysis about condition of education in field of
security and safety in the Slovenia
The first part of the survey is devided into five units and concluded by SWOT analysis of existing
educational institutions and their activities and maping a condition of further education in this field
for needs of creating eSEC portal. It includes general characteristics of secondary school educational
system, general characteristics of university educational system, general characteristics of lifelong
educational system, grant agencies supporting individual grades of education and individual fields of
science, education in the field of security on individual grades of education and SWOT analysis of
education in the field of security in given country from partner´s country´s point of view.
The whole document „Analysis Study“ includes analyses of environment in individual regions,
analysed by partner organisations of project eSEC focused on competences required by practice and
academic society in the field of security. A part of this material is the analysis of potential eSEC
users´structure and their requirements, the analysis of the structure and representation of expected
target groups of eSEC portal users: students, pedagogues, scientific employees, expert practice,
analysis of requirements for interactivity, user-friendly extremity, graphical surroundings and
multimediality of eSEC portal´s modules in connection to supposed skills of target groups users in
using ICT. In the conclusion of the document there is a partial analysis of eSEC portal´s modules
content based on analysis of required competences and its users´ structure, which defines the need
of individual moduls focused on thematic fields of security.

5.1 Analysis of condition of education in the field of security in the Slovenia from point of
view of partner’s organisation of eSEC Project.
5.1.1 Secondary school educational system
In Slovenia post-compulsory education begins with upper secondary education. It is divided into
general upper-secondary education, technical upper-secondary education and vocational upper-
secondary education.
Secondary education is provided in upper-secondary schools. The schools can specialise with the
provision of a single type of education, e.g. general upper-secondary schools (gimnazije).
Alternatively they can provide several types of education courses by becoming a school centre, which
combines various types of upper secondary schools.
Following the completion of compulsory education, approximately 98 % of students continue their
education at upper-secondary level. 40 % of students enrol onto general courses, more than 30 % of
students enrol onto technical courses, while others (approx. 30 %) enrol onto short vocational upper-
secondary courses. A small percentage of students (less than 2 %), who do not enrol onto secondary
education courses after the completion of their compulsory schooling choose either to enrol onto
vocational training courses, to enter the labour market, or to repeat the grade 9 of elementary
school in order to improve their grade for the overall success.
The main objectives of secondary education in Slovenia are:
• to provide all residents with opportunities to acquire upper-secondary level of education; • to enable all residents to acquire the highest level of education possible while maintaining
high standards of knowledge; • to increase the level of creativity of the highest number of residents possible and to foster
the development of society; • to enable students' involvement in the European integration processes.
Much of the organisation of the upper-secondary education system in Slovenia is centralised. The
most important decisions concerning upper secondary education (e.g. the content and structure of
programmes, staffing requirements and salaries, etc) are taken at the national level. However
schools do have a certain level of autonomy in the implementation of the core national curricula,
choice of teaching methods, staffing and employment matters and admission procedures.
General upper-secondary education in Slovenia
Gimnazije offer students (aged 15-18) four years of general education aimed at upgrading and
extending the knowledge gained during compulsory education. The primary missions of gimnazije
are:
• to give students the knowledge and skills in accordance with international quality education
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
169
standards that they need to continue their education at universities or other institutions of
tertiary education;
• to develop critical judgement and responsibility;
• to foster responsibility towards themselves and towards other people and the environment;
to develop general cultural and civilisation values;
• to prepare them for active citizenship;
• to encourage creativity and to develop the ability of artistic expression and the perception of
artistic work; and
• to support decisions concerning further education and professional careers.
The emphasis is on subjects and topics, such as mother tongue, literature, national identity, history
and culture, the development and preservation of cultural heritage and education about other
cultures and civilisations. Upon the completion of gimnazija, students undertake state wide external
examinations (Matura), which allow them to enrol into any type of tertiary education course. Those
who fail to complete gimnazija and/or do not wish to pursue further education, can acquire
professional and vocational skills and knowledge in short 1-year vocational courses, after the
completion of which they can search for a suitable job in the labour market.
Students may enrol in the gimnazija after the successful completion of elementary school. One of the
important criteria for enrolment is their overall success grade in elementary school, although schools
may specify additional admission criteria.
Gimnazije which specialise in the arts may require candidates to undertake special talent tests,
gimnazije specialised in sports may require candidates to provide evidence of their previous
achievements in sport.
In cases, when the number of candidates exceeds the number of available student places, the central
enrolment procedure for the admission of candidates is taken into consideration. This nationally
determined procedure is agreed by the Minister of Education, based upon the proposal of the Expert
Council.
The nationally determined admission criteria for the school year 2006/2007 were specified as
follows: overall success in grade 9 of the elementary school (max. 70 points) and achievements at
different competitions and projects depending on the specific criteria of the individual school (max.
15 points). Admission criteria for the sports gimnazije included the candidates' achievements and
results in the field of sport. If there were more candidates who achieved the required number of
points set for admission, candidates were selected on the basis of their pondered grades in specific
subjects in grade 9 of compulsory school.
The language of instruction in gimnazije is Slovenian. However in areas where members of the Italian
national minority live, some schools provide secondary education in Italian (with Slovenian as a
compulsory second language), while others offer education in Slovenian (with Italian as a compulsory
second language). Gimnazija in the area where members of the Hungarian national minority live
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
170
provide bilingual education (in Slovenian and Hungarian).
There are two other general upper-secondary schools, which offer the 2-year International
Baccalaureate courses (UNESCO,UN) in Year 3 and 4 of gimnazija and the programme of
International school in English language. Citizens from other EU members have the right to receive
upper-secondary education under the same conditions as Slovenian citizens.
Upper-secondary education is governed by the Gimnazije Act (enacted in 1996, Amendments 2001,
2006) and the Matura Act (enacted in 2003, with an amendment in 2006).
Gimnazije can be publicly or privately owned. Public gimnazije are funded by the State (possibly by
city municipalities) and are maintained by the Ministry of Education and Sport. Out of six privately
owned gimnazije, one provides the nationally determined curriculum, 4 are catholic and one is the
Waldorfska gimnazija (in accordance with Steiner pedagogical principles). The courses of private
gimnazije must meet the standards of the national gimnazija curriculum in order to receive public
financial support and be able to issue publicly recognised educational certificates and qualifications.
Therefore, they must be evaluated by the National Council of Experts and approved by the Minister
of Education.
Gimnazije provide various types of courses with different specialisms. All courses last 4 years.
Gimnazije are divided into two major groups:
• Gimnazije with no specific fields of study, which can however organize some classes with a special
interests, for example:
• Classes, intended for students, actively involved in sports;
• European classes with emphasis on social sciences, foreign language learning,
international cooperation and out-of-school activities linked to European and
global issues;
• Gimnazije offering specific fields of study: Classical gimnazije; Gimnazije with
International Baccalaureate courses; Catholic gimnazije and the Waldorf
gimnazija.
• Specialist gimnazije:
• Technical gimnazije, which offer a range of technical subjects from various
technical fields (engineering, electrical engineering, computer science,
construction and building, wood engineering, nutrition and agriculture);
• Gimnazije specialized in economics
• Gimnazije specialized in arts, which are additionally subdivided to Music,
Dance, Arts, Theatre and Drama.
Gimnazije schooling is free. Privately-owned gimnazije receive public funding (to cover at least 85 %
of the public gimnazije costs), based on their compliance with the statutory requirements for the
provision of general education. They may also collect admission fees (which are not very high) from
their students. Publicly-owned gimnazije are also entitled to charge fees for certain services (i.e.,
learning materials, excursions, etc).

The State pays for students' medical health insurance and subsidises school meals and school
transportation, depending on the social status of an individual student's family. The State is also
responsible for the organisation of the network of school dormitories, where students from distant
and/or remote locations can reside during their education. Students who live there can attend
different schools. These dormitories perform educational activities and employ educators, who help
students to plan their learning. Students have to pay for their residence in dormitories (approx. 90
€/month). They must pay also for their study books, although they can as well borrow them. The
state encourages the formation of "textbooks funds".
All gimnazije are coeducational. The number of students at an individual school may vary: from 60 to
approx. 1100 students. In large school centres, which have combined various types of upper-
secondary schools, the number of students can be up to 3000.
Vocational and technical upper-secondary education in Slovenia
Upper secondary vocational and technical education and training are governed by the Vocational
Education Act (enacted in 2006). It is divided into 20 broad technical/vocational fields within which
several courses are available. Courses differ in their length (including number of credit points),
admission criteria, options for the continuation of education, level of vocational standards for the
specific profession and levels of qualification. According to the new Act all courses must be evaluated
with credit points (1 credit point equals to 25 hours of coursework). Young people and adults can
acquire vocational qualifications through alternative means outside the formal school system, by
participating in the certified national vocational qualification scheme. Adults, who have acquired a
secondary vocational qualification and have at least 3 years of work experience, may acquire a
secondary technical education by taking a master craftsman, foreman or managerial examination
with the competent association.
The objectives of vocational and technical education and training are to develop key competences,
skills and vocational qualifications at an internationally comparable level and to provide knowledge
and skills for employment, further education and lifelong learning. All courses include general
education for continuous personal development, environmental studies and personal health care.
Every vocational or technical course must also contain subjects aimed at: the development of
communication skills; the development of knowledge and awareness, learning about national
integrity, national identity, one's own cultural tradition as well as other cultures and civilisations, the
development of talents and training for artistic expression and perception of arts. Courses must be
provided at an internationally comparable level and must enable participants' involvement in the
European labour market.
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
172
The course structures consist of:
• technical upper secondary education (srednje tehniško in strokovno izobraževanje),
• vocational upper secondary education (srednje poklicno izobraževanje),
• vocational-technical upper secondary education (poklicno tehniško izobraževanje) and
• shorter vocational education (nižje poklicno izobraževanje).
In addition, to the courses leading to vocational qualifications, the so-called vocational courses are
available, which are usually regarded in international comparisons as a form of post-secondary non-
tertiary vocational education. Furthermore, short specialisation and training courses are intended
mainly for adult learners and are provided in the form of courses, seminars and workshops. Their
purpose is to provide additional knowledge and skills, competences or work experience, which adults
need to be more competitive in the labour market. Types and levels of vocational and technical
education are specified by the law as follows:
Shorter vocational education courses are intended for those, who have successfully completed
elementary school or at least Grade 7 of elementary school or those, who have successfully
completed a special education programme, adapted for children with special needs. Courses may last
from two to three years (120 credit points) and end with a final exam. Successful completion of a
shorter vocational education course allows candidates to enrol into any other vocational or technical
upper secondary education course, during which students strengthen and upgrade their general
knowledge as well as acquire basic vocational competences and practical skills. They become trained
for independent fulfilment of simple vocational tasks, which are carried out in accordance with
standardized work procedures and appropriate instructions; or help with more complex work tasks,
typical for certain professions with broad profiles.
Vocational upper secondary education courses are intended for those, who have successfully
completed elementary school. Coursework is organised either as a full-time course which is provided
entirely within schools or in dual-mode (instruction is shared between school and the workplace,
provided by schools in combination with employers). Courses last approximately three years (180 to
240 credit points) and end with a final exam. General knowledge and technical skills in the relevant
professional field allows students and apprentices to undertake independent work in occupations
with broad profiles. Successful completion of the final exam allows candidates to continue their
education in relevant technical-vocational courses. Those who choose not to continue their
education and enter an employment contract, may, after 3 years of work experience, undertake a
master craftsman, foreman, managerial examination, after which they are awarded a qualification of
a technician, equivalent to the qualification acquired in technical upper secondary education.
Technical upper secondary education courses are intended for students who have successfully
completed elementary school. The courses last from 4 to 5 years (240-300 credit points) and end
with the vocational matura examination (poklicna matura). The vocational matura examination leads
to the award of the qualification of a technician, which allows students to enrol into professionally-

173
oriented (1st Cycle professional) higher education courses or higher vocational education courses
(short Cycle non-degree). If students pass an additional exam in one of the general matura
examination subjects, they may also enrol into academic higher education (1st Cycle academic)
courses, which support this option. Technical upper secondary education provides learners with basic
and technical education. Learners are prepared for their occupation(s) as well as for the continuation
of their education at higher vocational colleges and professionally-oriented higher education
institutions. Students who complete the course are equipped with technical qualifications for the
independent fulfilment of complex, non-standard, technologically more complex work processes and
tasks.
Combined vocational-technical education is intended for students, who have already successfully
completed upper secondary vocational education. It lasts approximately two years (120 credit
points) and ends with the vocational matura examination. Technical-vocational education therefore
provides vocationally qualified candidates with the possibility of acquiring technical qualification and
thus gaining access to higher education. If candidates pass an additional exam in one of the general
matura examination subjects, they may also enrol into specific academic higher education (1st cycle
academic) courses, which support this option. The characteristics and objectives are equal to
characteristics and objectives of technical upper secondary education.
Professional fields of vocational and technical education and training are the following:
• electrical engineering and computer science;
• economics, trade and management-administration services;
• hair styling services;
• catering and tourism;
• housekeeping services;
• construction and geodesy;
• wood engineering and carpentry;
• chemistry;
• agriculture;
• mechanotronics;
• design and photography;
• preschool care;
• glass processing and optics;
• mechanical engineering, metallurgy and mining;
• textile and leather;
• printing and paper science;
• environmental care/ecology;
• health, pharmaceutics and cosmetics;
• nutrition and veterinary science.
Admission procedures are administered at a central level. Students in the final grades of elementary
schools discuss their further career plans with their teachers and school counsellors, Students also

Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
174
receive information from post secondary schools, which organise information days for potential
students prior to the beginning of the admission-enrolment process. Based on the upper secondary
schools' proposals the Ministry of Education and Sport prepares and coordinates public admission
criteria for enrolment into post secondary education courses. The Ministry also administers and
manages the candidates' applications and selection procedures. Upper secondary schools can decide
to limit enrolment or increase the number of available student posts, after they have established the
exact number of applicants. Further selection procedures in case of oversubscription are also
managed by the Ministry. Selection criteria include the students past study record, results achieved
at national competitions in specific fields/ and special skills and knowledge, which are important for
successful education or successful fulfilment of work tasks in a certain profession.
Upper secondary education is provided in schools or folk high schools. If the course consists of
workplace training, schools provide the education together with employers in the dual education and
training system. In general, schools offer several types of courses of various length in different
occupational areas. Schools may vary in size (from 100 to up to 3000 students). School centre, which
provide education for a very large number of students, usually comprise several types of schools.
Vocational and technical schools, gimnazija and in some cases also higher vocational education
college, they all may be under the roof of one school centre.
Education in public upper secondary schools is free. Students and apprentices from economically
deprived families receive school meals at a subsidised price. Students can buy study books or borrow
them at school. Schools may charge fees for special services (i.e. administrative costs, special
equipment, etc). All vocational and technical schools are coeducational.
5.1.2 University educational system
University education and upbringing is realised in the Slovenia mainly at:
• public universities- higher education institutions,
• Independent higher education institutions.
Public university is a public service and self-governing institution, that is established and cancelled by
the law. By the law is also set its name, categorization and its residence. If a public university is
devided into faculties, at its establishing there are also established these faculties.
Independent higher education institutions is a legal entity with a residence in the Slovenia, which
was established or funded for education and research, is entitled to operate as a private school, if
Slovenian government granted an approval for its operation in the name of state.

Higher education institutions in the Republic of Slovenia; list of HEIs, entered in the register of HEIs
(Higher Education Act, Article 16: A HEI may commence with activities, after being entered in the
register of HEIs.):
• University of Ljubljana
• University of Maribor
• University of Primorska
• Independent higher education institutions o University of Nova Gorica o Emuni University o Other independent HEIs
Higher education institutions are divided according to their character and range of their activities in
the Slovenia into:
• varsity colleges,
• non- varsity colleges.
Varsity colleges provide education in study programes of all three grades with significant share of
study programes of the second and the third grade.They realise study programes in connection with
their activities in the field of science, technique or the arts and in accordance with actual state and
development of these areas. The word „university“, or from it derived forms can have in their name
only universities.
Non-varsity colleges are marked as technical colleges, they provide university education
predominantely in the study programes of the first grade. University college, that reaches excellent
results in the field of science and technique as well as at realising of the study programes of the third
grade is research university.
General conditions to be accepted for study at university are fulfiled by those secondary school
graduants who have obtained school report of school leaving exam issued after successful passing of
school leaving exam after attending ordinarily 12, exceptionally after 13 years of visiting primary and
secondary school (combined). Universities usually arrange also entrance examinations if there is so
many candidates in some programes.
Study at universities is provided in three grades:
• bachelor study program – 1.grade,
• magister, engineer and doctor (of medicine, dental, veterinary) study program – 2.grade,
• doctorate study program– 3.grade.
Bachelor study program lasts at least three years and maximally four years of study.
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
176
Magister, engineer and doctor (of medicine, dental, veterinary) study program lasts at least one year
and maximally three years so that standard length of study according to bachelor study program and
a following study program of the second grade in the same field or similar field of study was together
at least five years or maximal six years. The study can be also running continuously connecting first
and second grade of university degree. In this case the whole length of study is at least five years and
maximally six years.
Standard length of doctorate study program in its internal form is at least three years and maximally
four years. For external students maximally five years. Higher education institutions grant their
graduants these academic degrees:
1.grade: bachelor(Bc.).
2.grade :
• magister (Mgr.),
• in the field of art (Mgr. art.),
• engineer in technical, areas of engineering programs (Dipl. Ing.),
• in the field of architecture and urbanism academic degree engineer architect (Dipl. Ing. arch.),
• doctor of general medicine in the area of general (human) medicine (MUDr.),
• doctor of dental medicine in the area of (human) dental medicine (MDDr.),
• doctor of veterinary medicine in the area of veterinary medicine (MVDr.). 3.grade :
• doctor - philosophiae doctor (PhD.),
• doctor of art - artis doctor (ArtD.),
• doctor (of catholic) theology (ThDr.).
System of assessment generally used by higher education institutions:
• excellent (the hightest rate) – grade 10,
• very good – grade 8 or 9,
• good – grade 7,
• satisfactory (the lowest rate) – grade 6,
• did not pass – grade from 1 to 5.
In all schools subjects students´ perfomances are assessed by a credits. In this case the requirements
for results in particular subjects are lower than for exams. Credit system since school year
2003/2004: Established standard load of student for the whole academic year, which is expressed by
number of 60 credits per academic school year, 30 credits per semester.
Assessment by a mark according to this system differentiates five classifying grades :
• excellent (the hightest rate) – grade 10,
• very good – grade 8 or 9,
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
177
• good – grade 7
• satisfactory (the lowest rate) – grade 6,
• did not pass – grade from 1 to 5.
Academic school year begins on the 1 of October of current year and finishes on the 31 of September
of the following year. It consists of two semesters (winter and summer). The organisation of
academic year is set by the statute of university or by faculty if it is not a member of university.
Study program can be realised in the following forms of study :
• Full – time study,
• External form of study.
Full – time study form is characterised by daily attendance of student at educational activities.
External form of study includes mainly self – study and individual consultations.
Study program in both forms of study can be realised through following methods of study by:
• attendance method,
• distance method,
• combined method.
Attendance method of study is based on teaching where there is a direct contact of students with
their lectorer. Distance method substitudes a direct contact of student with his/her teacher by
communication through means of communication, mainly means based on using information
technologies.
5.1.3 System of lifelong education
Lifelong education represent all activities, that are realised throughout life with a goal of improving
knowledge, skills and abilities. Lifelong education as a fundamental principle of upbringing and
education applied in educational system of the Slovenia is created by:
• school education,
• further education following related grade of education achieved in school education
School education is upbringing and education realised in kindergartens, at elementary schools,
grammar schols, secondary technical schools, conservatories, at schools for children with special
pedagogical-educational needs and study in accredited study programs at universities. By successful
completion of school education students get a grade of education.
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
178
Further education is education in educational institutions of further education, which follow after
related school education and enable to obtain partial or full qualification or to complete, restore,
extend or deepen the qualification achieved in school education or to satisfy interests and obtain
competence to interfere into social life of civil society.By successful completion of further education
students cannot achieve a grade of education. Further education is realised in official langue of the
state and according to the interest of participants further education can be realised also in other
than official language.
Other kinds of lifelong education are :
• other technical education in accredited education program, which leads to completion, restoration, extention or deepening of qualification required to performance of technical activity,
• retraining/requalification education in accredited education program, which leads to obtaining partial qualification or full qualification – professional competence for one or more work activities in other profession than in profession for which a person achieved qualification through school education,
• continuous education in education programs, by which a participant of further education completes, extends or restores qualification as a condition to perform professional activity,
• interest-education, civil education, senior education and other kinds of education, through which a participant of further education satisfies his/her interests, interferes in social life and generally develops his/her personality.
Education institutions realise accredited education programs and non-accredited education
programs. Education programs can be realised:
• by attendance form,
• by distance form,
• by combined form.
Education institutions within the bounds of lifelong education are:
• grammar schools, secondary technical schools, conservatories, schools for children with special pedagogical-educational needs, basic artistic schools, language schools and universities that except school education realise also education programs,
• legal entities, whose subject of business is education and activities closely connected with education,
• physical persons –entrepreneurs, whose subject of business is education or activities closely connected with education.
5.2 Grant agencies supporting individual grades of education in Slovenia
Within the Slovenia there are different agencies supporting education, whose activity is based on
support of research or support of study.These agencies can be divided into these two basic groups:
• agencies supporting research and development,
• agencies mediating information.
Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering
Agreement number: 502092-LLP-1-2009-1-SK-ERASMUS-EMHE
179
Among main agencies supporting research and development within the Slovak Republic we rate
following organisations:
The Slovenian Research Agency (ARRS)
As an independent public funding organisation perform tasks relating to the National Research and
Development Programme and creation of European Research Area.
ARRS:
• provides framework for scientific research within the national budget and other sources,
• promotes high quality scientific research in Slovenia and its application,
• fosters internationaly comparable evaluation standards in Slovenia,
• provides the transparency of organising research community in Slovenia,
• promotes international research cooperation,
• analyses R&D activities and provides science policy expertise.
The Agency performs the following tasks:
• selects and finances research and infrastructure programmes that provide a public service in the research field;
• manages young researcher projects and other projects assigned to the Agency as part of the National Research and Development Programme and the annual plan of the ministry responsible for science;
• monitors the usefulness, innovation level, efficiency, quality, competitiveness and professionalism of the work research organisations allocated funding or other incentives;

The Slovenian Research agency is throughout different international initiatives and forums connected
with similar institutions from other European countries and even broader. As a full member the
agency participates in two most important associations of research councils:
• ESF – European Science foundation,
• EUROHORCs – European Heads of Research Councils.
Cooperation with similar institutions from other countries is important due to the exchange of good
practices, harmonisation of positions about the further development of European science policy and
especially because of permanent development of competent, reliable and independent evaluation
systems. Besides that, the agency is co-organiser of the annual conference Bled forum on Europe,
which is focused on future challenges of Europe.
Public Agency for Technology of the Republic of Slovenia (TIA)
was founded by the Republic of Slovenia. TIA is an independent public agency responsible for the
enhancement of technology development and innovation in the Republic of Slovenia. Our main
activities are grant programs aimed at technology development and foster cooperation of R&D
institutions and universities with industry.An important part of our activities are international
projects. Through the cooperation with partners abroad we strive to develop new policies in
technology development and services to the Slovenian industry. More information on
http://www.arrs.gov.si/en/
European Research Area
Slovenia in the European Research Area: Europe has a long-standing tradition of excellence in
research and innovation, and European teams continue to lead progress in many fields of science and
technology. However European centres of excellence are scattered across the continent and all too
often their efforts fail to add up in the absence of adequate networking and cooperation. In the past,
collaborative actions have been initiated at European and Community level. With introduction of the
6th Framework Programme the European Commission FP6 decided to bring European endeavours
together and build a research and innovation equivalent of the "common market" for goods and
services. That structure is called the European Research Area and is regrouping all Community
supports for the better coordination of research activities and the convergence of research and
innovation policies, at national and EU levels.
European Structural Funds

181
The National Foundations for the Use of Structural Funds; The national foundations for the use of
financial resources from the European structural funds in the 2007-2013 programming period were
adopted by the Government of the RS at the session of 16 February 2007. They comprise three key
programming documents, relating to:
• the 2007-2013 National Strategic Reference Framework, as an action plan of the Republic of Slovenia for the 2007-2013 period, which defines how Slovenia will achieve its strategic goals and objectives; it is a joint programming document of Slovenia and the European Commission, collaborating in its implementation and funding as partners;
• the 2007-2013 Operational Programme for Human Resources Development as a programme supported by the European Social Fund;
• The Operational Development Programme for Strengthening the Regional Development Potential for the 2007-2013 Period as a programme supported by the European Regional Development Fund.
National Strategic Reference Framework (NSRO)
The NSRO includes programmes and projects that will be co-financed by funds from the European
budget and will meet the criteria of the new EU regulations in the field of the cohesion Policy for the
2007-2013 period. At another level – that is, on the basis of the NSRO – operational programmes will
be prepared.
The Centre of the Republic of Slovenia for Mobility and European Educational and Training
Programmes (CMEPIUS)
CMEPIUS is a public institution working in the field of international projects and international
mobility. It was established in October 2003 and continues the work of the previous EU Programmes
Agency. It performs two main tasks:
• co-ordinating the Lifelong Learning European Community Programme (successor of SOCRATES and LEONARDO da VINCI), and
• supporting development in education and training.
In addition, CMEPIUS pursues national programmes of mobility (bilateral and multilateral
scholarships of the Republic of Slovenia and scholarships for Slovenes living abroad) and activities of
some other European programmes in the area of education and training, including Erasmus Mundus,
the eTwinning National Support Centre, and the European Language Label initiative. Within the
activities of the European Research Area (ERA) the Centre also acts as a Bridgehead Organisation of
the EURAXESS National Centre.
The team of the Centre is strongly dedicated to opening doors to experience for individuals and
institutions through international programmes. We aim to offer opportunities to people of all ages
and interests and to support the institutions of different profiles in their way to realisation of
international projects in the field of education and training.

Lifelong Learning Programme
The European Commission’s Lifelong Learning Programme enables people at all stages of their lives
to take part in stimulating learning experiences, as well as helping to develop the education and
training sector across Europe.With a budget of nearly €7 billion for 2007 to 2013, the programme
funds a range of actions including exchanges, study visits and networking activities. Projects are
intended not only for individual students and learners, but also for teachers, trainers and all others
involved in education and training.
It is an umbrella programme integrating various educational and training initiatives. LLP is divided in
four sectorial sub programmes and four so called 'transversal' programmes.
Structure: the sectorial sub programmes focus on different stages of education and training and
continuing previous programmes:
• Comenius for schools,
• Erasmus for higher education,
• Leonardo da Vinci for vocational education and training,
• Grundtvig for adult education.
The transversal programmes aim to complement the sectorial sub programmes and to ensure that
they achieve the best results possible. They aim to promote European cooperation in fields covering
two or more of the sub-programmes. In addition they seek to promote quality and transparency of
Member States' education and training systems.
Four key activities focus on:
• Policy cooperation and innovation (including study visits for education and training specialists),
• Languages,
• Information and communication technologies – ICT,
• Dissemination and exploitation of results.
The Jean Monnet programme also falls under the LLP umbrella, in addition to the sectorial and
transversal programmes; The Jean Monnet programme stimulates teaching, reflection and debate on
the European integration process at higher education institutions.

would prefer Scientific peer reviewed journal.
D. Evaluation of questionnaire regard to set aims
In terms of respondents´age the most frequent group is the group up to the age of 30 years, which
makes 79 per cent of all respondents. In terms of gender representation in questionnaire survey,
there is equal presence of genders, where 49 per cent of all respondents are men and 51 per cent are
women. 59 per cent of respondents have no practical experience in the area of security and safety.
This can be interpreted with fact that 73 per cent of participated respondents were students, but
some of them are part time students hence practical expiriance. 27 per cent of respondents have
experience in the range of 1 to 10 years, 9 per cent of respondents have experience in the range of
11 to 20 years, 5 per cent of respondents have experience of 21 to 30 years. In the survey on whole
there were participated 73,3 per cent of students, 12,8 per cent of experts from practice (state
administration/ self-government/ third sector/ private sector), 10,5 per cent of teachers, eventually
researchers of university/ institute (assistant/ fellow/ lecturer /professor) and3,5 per cent of
„enthusiasts“.
Justification of need to create eSEC portal in terms of target groups
As many as 60 per cent of respondents have not met during their study /profession with
a software/tool/service, which would help them choose study stay/fellowship/subjects based on by
themselves required parametres/competences. As 55 per cent of survey respondents stated, at most
activities employment/study requires further form of lifelong education, which is, however,
voluntary and they have an interest in it. After adding 15 per cent of respondents who stated that
education is compulsory, eventually it is required by law, this group makes together 70 per cent of
respondents.
Based on evaluation of question What are, in your view, deficiences by yourself used electronic
information sources, can be stated, that information sources don´t provide complex information,
which respondent requires at his/her activity/ study, there is insufficient updating of published
information, it does not provide terminological dictionary of stated technical terms and it requires
a membership in a particular organisation/ institution/ university, which should be at creating eSEC
portal avoided.
Study analysis of security education in Italy in aspect of eSec project partner organization 2010
214
Other supporting argument for creating eSEC portal is, that as many as 74 per cent of respondents
have no particular idea at which institution they would obtain required competences, if they decide
for fellowship or foreign stay.
Requirements of target groups for individual eSEC portal modules in terms of content, form and
significance
As many as 74 per cent of respondents have no particular idea at which institution they would
obtain required competences if they decide for fellowship or foreign stay.Potential future users,
survey respondents would most welcome from preparing eSEC portal modules these ones: Published
technical works/ textbooks/surveys, Professional journal focused on practice, Preparing events –
trainings, seminars, exhibitions, conferences, workshops, Terminological dictionary, List of
educational institutions from the field. According to individual target groups the results correspond
with an average, students would in addition welcome Supply and demand of labour market, Chat,
Blogs. Teachers and researchers would also prefer Scientific peer reviewed journal.
Acquisition of information sources usable within the portal modules from target groups is elaborated
and written out of respondents´ answers in detail in next part of this document, as a separate part.
Providing information about realisation of project to target groups
Yet through questionnaire survey there was an effort to spread information about preparing project
eSEC and to present eSEC portal (http://www.esecportal.eu/), which is temporarily operating
through information website http://esec2012.blogspot.com/ (where there is until origin of the portal
redirected also registrated site of portal http://www.esecportal.eu/).
By follow-up question (Providing you are interested in just realising European project and you have
an interest to participate in preparing portal eSEC devoting to issue of Security and Safety, please,
state your contact, or what form of participation you can offer) we tried to get contacts to mailing
list, whose members we are gradually going to send information and news about eSEC portal.
From complex anylising of respondents´answers it is possible to state a relevance of creating the
portal, which in the area of security and safety will create environment that supports achieving
competences in the area of security and safety whether directly through the portal, through the
sources on the portal or indirectly through individual links and portal options.

Thanks to the results of this analysis we will proceed at gradual completing of the portal. Last but not
least it is needed to emphasize the fact, that the survey did not prove the existence of similar tool
neither in the area of security and safety nor in other related disciplines.
E. Acquisition of information sources usable within portal modules from target groups (Question: 7,
12, 14).

6 Introduction of the study analysis in Italy
6.1 Analysis of condition of education in the field of security in Italy from point of view of
partner’s organisation of eSEC project
The basic principles relating to education are laid down in the Italian Constitution of 1948 and
include: freedom of education; the State’s duty to provide a network of educational establishments
of every type and level, open to all without distinction; the right of private individuals to set up
schools at no cost to the State; the right to education and basic vocational training for those unable
to work and the disabled (Articles 34 and 33 of the Constitution).
The Italian educational system provides:
1. Scuola dell'infanzia nursery school (non-compulsory) for children between 3 and 6 years of age, lasting 3 years;
2. first cycle of education (8 years) a. primary education elementary school for children 6 to 11 year-olds (which lasts 5
years); b. lower secondary school for children between 11 and 14 years of age, (lasting 3 years)
or middle school; 3. Second cycle of education:
a. Upper secondary school or vocational training for 15- to 18- or 19-year-olds (which lasts 5 years). This level of education is provided by licei, technical institutes, art institutes and vocational institutes. Vocational and art institutes also offer three-year courses. The second pathway is initial vocational training (three-year courses) for students who have completed the first cycle of education and is organized by the Regions;
b. post-secondary non-tertiary education, within the higher technical education and training system (Istruzione e Formazione Tecnica Superiore – IFTS), offers higher technical education and training pathways and courses provided by Higher Technical Institutes (Istituti Tecnici Superiori – ITS);
4. Higher education a. and university, b. university institutes, c. or Fine Arts academies for those 19 and older.
Education in Italy is free and compulsory is compulsory for 10 years (up to 16 years of age), (was for
eight years for children between the ages of 6 and 14) before the reform.
Moreover, the higher education system is divided into State and non-State establishments.
The Italian public administration has been a highly centralised organization for a long time, so starting from 1997 consequent delegated provisions have granted schools from the school

year 2000/01 a wide autonomy for teaching methods, organization, research, experimentation and development. Autonomy of schools is exercised within a general framework set by the MIUR to guarantee the coherence of the education system.
6.1.1 Secondary school educational system
Italian secondary school is divided into lower secondary (middle school), and upper secondary
education (high and vocational schools). Secondary school is compulsory till 16 years. Every tier
involves an exam at the end of the final years. The lower and upper secondary levels of education
have recently been reformed by law 53/2003 and subsequent Decrees; in particular these include the
length of compulsory education, the reform of the upper secondary level of education and a few
aspects of the organization and curriculum at lower secondary level
Lower secondary school
Italian students have to attend lower secondary school –middle school (scuola media) – a sort of bridge between elementary education and higher education (college or university) - which lasts three years, the training ends with a standard examination. Attendance is compulsory and the student’s achievements and behaviour is observed by teachers and noted on a personal report.
Upper secondary school
The State upper secondary education is offered by the licei, the technical institutes, the vocational institutes, and the arts institutes. The overall length of study is 5 years (from 14 to 19 years of age) both in the licei and in the technical institutes, except for the liceo specialising in arts subjects which offers a course of study of 4 years plus an additional year. Vocational institutes and arts institutes offer courses lasting either 3 or 5 years.
At present the traditional secondary schools last five years, when students are 19. At the end there is an examination with a board of examiners composed of three external members and

three internal members supervised by an external president. Students passing the final examination then have access to all types of university and higher education courses.
Secondary schools are of different types and allow students to choose alternative career paths
depending on their interests and aptitude. There is the Liceo, the Istituto Tecnico (technical institute)
and the Istituto Professionale (professional institute). The Liceo includes secondary schools oriented
towards the study of the arts and sciences.
The Licei are again divided into four types: Liceo Classico, focusing on humanities has a classical bias:
general culture, the study of Latin and Ancient Greek, history and philosophy are the main subjects.
Liceo Scientifico, where the emphasis focusing on sciences aims to develop and deepen scientific and
mathematical topics, such as geometry, calculus, biology, chemistry or physics; Liceo Linguistico,
focuses on languages and Liceo Artistico, which is oriented toward the arts. The reform propose to
potenziate the lyceum system.
The licei run for 5 years and result divided into two periods:
• 1st – 2 years propedeutico
• 2nd - 3 years
Art school focuses on visual arts and connected expressive means and forms
Technical schools focus on practical subjects such as business administration, information technology, chemistry and subjects related to technical and administrative skills in the agricultural, industrial and commercial fields. The final diploma gives access to any university course.
Vocational schools are more oriented to prepare students to enter the job market: they prefer practical subjects, in order to qualify the students to start searching for a job as soon as they have finished attending school.
6.1.2 Universtity educational system
Italian higher education is shared between
- The university sector - The non university sector
The university sector
At the present, the university sector is made up of 89 university institutions which are classified as follows:
• 58 State University,
Study analysis of security education in Italy in aspect of eSec project partner organization 2010
223
• 17 non State University,
• 2 University for foreigners,
• 6 Higher schools specialized in postgraduate university studies,
• 6 Distance university.
Based on the regulation on university autonomy of 1999, all universities and university-level
establishments are autonomous bodies, as regards both their administrative management, teaching
methods and scientific research.
However, still now the entire system is subject of a reform, in a recent past another reform (starting
from the academic year 2000/2001) foresees a new organization of the courses to obtain the 1st and
2nd cycle qualifications:
• three-year laurea (L) course (1st cycle); (no 43)
• two-year (LS)laurea specialistica/magistrale course (2nd cycle); (no 100)
• First-level Diploma di specializzazione courses, whose duration can vary (2nd cycle)
• and first-level Master universitario course, lasting at least one year (2nd cycle).
• The 3rd cycle offers Research Doctorate courses, lasting three years. (3rd cycle).
The complete list of laurea is accessible on the national website http://offf.miur.it. Each class
includes several laurea courses; for each course there is a study plan, established by each faculty in
its own Statute, setting out the compulsory subjects and supplementary courses to be selected by
the students to complete their individual study plans.
Furthermore, the reform (1999) has introduced the CFU (university credits) system, which represents
the quantity of learning work required by students: with one credit = a 25 hours of study, so that
each full-time student need to reach 60 credits.But it is still in act a reform the university
The non-university sector
The education in non-university sector is provided in institutions which have their own particular structures, regulations and organization can be subsumed as follows:
• Afam institute: Higher schools of design: 20 State art academies and 26 legally recognized academies, higher institutes for applied art and 4 higher institutes for artistic industries;
• 54 Conservatoires and 21 officially recognized music institutes and the National Academy of Dance: music conservatories and recognized music institutes, higher institutes, higher institutes for musical and choreographic studies, national academies and the National Academy of Drama ‘Silvio D’Amico’;
• higher education in language mediation: higher schools for language mediators, higher integrated education (FIS): programmes of higher technical education & training (IFTS) ;
Study analysis of security education in Italy in aspect of eSec project partner organization 2010
224
• a few specific fields (e.g. archiving, diplomatic, restoration, military studies etc.) which, along their respective institutions, fall under the supervision of ministries other than of education.
6.1.3 System of lifelong education
In the last years according with many factors: as the recent disaster, as the new communication
strategy around the theme (sometimes correct, sometimes too partisan and exasperated), the big
revision of the national laws operated by many European states on the risk
assessment/prevention/protection etc...etc..
However, the boom of this kind of things was rapidly extended also at the traditional institution as
university and other school which in few times arranged course in security and safety for his student,
for the technicians, for a lot of specialists already worked.
We’ll give examples of the private and public offers in the security topic, just to explore what the
relation with cost / timing / and finality.
Another reason according with the unbelievable exploit of the lifelong public and private education
was the mandatory rules for the professional order that impose every member a minimum annual
credits to reach to maintenance the inscription at the order.
Anyway, in Italy the new tradition of the lifelong education could be define as non-traditional studies
and include:
• Distance higher education
• Lifelong higher education
• Other forms of non-formal higher education
Lifelong higher education
Universities also offer short advanced study courses and post-experience courses in the framework
of lifelong education. A degree is not obligatory for admission. An Attendance Certificate is issued at
the end of these courses. There are also Universities of the Third Age.
Other forms of non-formal higher education
Alongside the state higher education system, other educational opportunities have been established
locally by the Regions which establish and manage vocational programmes in a broad variety of fields
and at various levels. They train participants for better occupational opportunities in industry, trade
and crafts. With respect to university education, regional post-secondary courses offer an alternative
route which is more centred on specific technical notions and skills. They are open to holders of a
secondary school leaving qualification (corsi post-diploma) or to Laurea graduates (corsi post-laurea).
Their main purpose is to train professionals in new functions required by the ever-changing
Study analysis of security education in Italy in aspect of eSec project partner organization 2010
225
production system and the further specialization of already existing professional profiles. Some post-
secondary professional programmes are set up jointly by the Regions and the Ministry of Labour and
benefit from financial contributions from the European social fund. The regional office for
professional training (Assessorato Regionale alla Formazione Professionale) or information offices
run by local bodies (e.g. the Informagiovani) give information on regional/provincial professional
programmes.
6.2 Grant agencies supporting individual educational grades of education in Italy
The complexity of Italian system that we saw in the previous paragraphs, maintains his characteristic
also to how concern the Grant agencies.
In Italy, research is conducted through a network of Science Parks, Business Incubators, several
Private Research Institutes and Public Research Organizations (PRO), and many european funded
programme. These “entities/organizations” can work autonomously or come together, can have
different funds, to develop research and business ideas within public-private consortia, but
everybody according to the MIUR (Ministry for Education University and Research) that established
guidelines of the national research plan.
Listed as follows the Grant agencies not public fully funded:
Public Research Organizations
• The National Research Council (CNR), working in all scientific disciplines.
• The National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Environment (ENEA), operating in the fields of energy, environment and new technologies.
• The National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN) dedicated to the study of the fundamental constituents of matter etc, participates in CERN activities.
• The Italian Space Agency (ASI)
Research (as well the universities, which produce the most part of the research) in Italy have ever
had an old tradition of public financing, however in the past years have registered a gradual but
important increase in R&D expenditure, confirming the strong commitment the country is
undertaking in order to align Italy with other European leaders performed by private companies,
public administration entities.
As well other resources also in the academic research the investments in Italy are unevenly
distributed.
Technology parks bring together companies, venture capitalists, universities, laboratories and
research centres, increasing the wealth of the local communities, creating a fertile and collaborative
working environment and offering a wide range of services.
European Union funded Programme:

7 Introduction of the study analysis in France
7.1 General characteristics of Secondary Education in France
Secondary education includes two sequential programmes:
Middle School (collège), the first sequence of secondary education, represents four years of study,
counting down: Sixth Year, Fifth Year, Fourth Year, Third Year, and students are usually 11 to 15 years
old. At the end of the Third year, students having the required academic record and who successfully
pass a national exam are awarded a diploma called the “Brevet”. This diploma is not required for
students who wish to continue the second sequence of secondary school studies in High School
(Lycée).
Students in High School (Lycée) must choose one among three broad curricula: general/theoretical
studies, technological studies, vocational studies. Each one of these curricula prepares students for
a specialised “baccalauréat”, a battery of exams that students usually take when they are 18.
The general and technological high school curricula are three years: Second Year, First Year,”
Terminal” (Final) Year. During the Second Year students choose a specialisation for their baccalauréat
which will determine the orientation of their programme of study for the final two years:
• For the general/theoretical curriculum, students choose between a Literary programme (L), an Economic Science programme (ES), or a Scientific programme (S).
• For the technological programme, students choose between: Sciences and technologies for the health and social sectors (ST2S), Sciences and technologies for the industrial sector (STI), Sciences and laboratory technologies (STL), Sciences and technologies for management (STG).
The “First Year” and the “Terminal Year” prepare students for either the general/theoretical or
technological “baccalauréat” series of exams.
In a vocational high school, students can prepare a Certificate of Vocational Skills (Certificat
d’Aptitude professionnelle (CAP)), in two years. They also have the possibility to enter a Second Year
professional baccalauréat curriculum, followed by a Terminal Year in order to obtain a Certificate of
Study analysis of security education in Italy in aspect of eSec project partner organization 2010
243
Professional Studies (Brevet d’études professionnelles (BEP)). Once they have this diploma they may
follow a programme to get a Technician Certificate (Brevet de technicien (BT)), or a professionnel
baccalauréat (Bac Pro), in two years. Students can also follow a special programme in view of
entering a Teminal Year in the technology curriculum. The fields of study are broad and various: food
and catering industry, industrial processes and automation, reception services, counselling
assistance, etc.1
Diagram of the vocational high school programme 2
Attending school is required in France until the age of 16. Schools administrated by the French Ministry of Education can be public or private. About 15 % of students in France attend private Middle Schools (Lower Secondary, “collège”) and about 20 % attend private High Schools (Higher Secondary, “Lycée”).
7.2 General Characteristics of Higher Education in France
The baccalauréat, awarded at the end of secondary studies, certifies a student’s ability to follow
university level studies, thus granting them access to higher education. French students have several
choices for their higher education programmes, and there are short and long study programmes.
Short study programmes (baccalauréat + 2 years of studies) for the business, industry or service
sectors. These programmes of study always include internships in a company and prepare students
to enter the workforce. These programmes prepare for the following diplomas:

7.3 General Characteristics of Continuing Education in France (Formation Tout Au Long de
La Vie (FPTLV))
Companies are required by law to offer training opportunities to their salaried employees.
- Training Plan (Plan de formation): all companies must carry out a training plan every year. It
orchestrates all the training opportunities within the framework of the company’s personnel
management policy.7
- Training interview (Entretien de formation): All salaried employees with two years of seniority have
the right to a training interview every two years.
- National training tax: All companies pay a tax to support continuing education programmes.

Salaried employees and persons looking for employment can benefit from many opportunities for
life-long-learning throughout their careers:
- The Personal Training Leave of Absence (Congé Individuel de Formation (CIF)): The CIF allows all
workers on their own initiative to follow a programme of study for a maximum duration of one year.
In order to benefit, workers mush have worked for at least 24 months, of which 12 must have been
in the company. 8
- The Individual Right to Training (Le droit individuel à la formation (DIF)): The DIF allows all salaried
employees with at least 1 year of seniority to amass credits for hours of training, 20 hours per year,
which can cumulate over a six-year period with a limit of 120 hours. Salaried employees may request
to set up their Individual Right to Training, but its implementation requires the agreement of their
employer concerning the proposed training programme. 9
- The skills review (bilan de competences): This review is designed to identify the skills,
competencies, aptitudes, and motivation of the employee and to define a professional project or
plan for training. The skills review can be established either by the employer or on the initiative of
the salaried employer. The skills review takes place in a specialised centre. (Congé Bilan de
Compétences). 10
- Validation of professional experience (Validation des acquis de l’expérience (VAE)) makes it possible
for professionals to get their professional experience officially recognised. This opportunity is open to
anyone who has at least three years professional experience relative to the requested certification.
11
- Professional training (Périodes de professionnalisation): employees have access to training activities
to enhance their professional expertise in the field of practice; access depends on certain conditions
(20 years of professional activity, over 45 years old, etc.)

- There are other training opportunities like sandwich or co-op programmes; each one of these
contracts is pre-defined and tailored for a specific group with specific objectives12; a training
contract (le contrat d’apprentissage)13 or a contract for professional certification (contrat de
professionnalisation).14
7.4 Grants for personal training
Grants for training are awarded on the basis of the beneficiary’s profile:
- The French Ministry of Education awards scholarships to university students under 28 years old.
Several kinds of scholarship can be granted on the basis of a set of awards criteria.15
- There are several ways to finance PhD studies: the PhD contract (contrat doctoral), Industrial
Research Contracts (Conventions Industrielles de Formation par la Recherche (CIFRE)), European
scholarships, private scholarships, etc.16
- Financing for in-company training is provided by official professional organisations which are
certified by the State to which the company pays dues (organismes paritaires collecteurs agréés
(OPCA)). Additional financing may be available with funds collected by the Congé Individuel de
Formation (CIF)). They include organisations like FONGECIF, FAFSEA, according to the activity sector
which financed the CIF.

- It is also possible to benefit from complementary funds allocated by the State or the Region.
Means to finance the cost of training come from a multitude of sources and depend on the situation
of the employee: salaried, seeking a job, etc.
- Financing by the Regional Council: in certain regions, salaried employees can benefit from financial
aide to follow a programme of study, with or without aid from the State.
- Job seekers may get funding for training from the Office of Unemployment (pôle emploi) or the
Regional Council (Conseil régional). Funding schemes may vary from one region to another.
- Unsalaried professionals (doctors, lawyers, farmers, artisans, tradesmen, etc.) may get funding for
training through three training insurance funds: the inter-professional training fund (fonds
interprofessionnel de formation des professions libérales (F.I.P.-P.L.)), the association for managing
finances for training directors of companies (association de gestion du financement de la formation
des chefs d'entreprise (AGEFICE)), or the insurance fund for training medical professionals (fonds
d'assurance formation des professions médicales libérales (F.A.P.-P.L.)).
- The Handicapped can solicit funds for training to enter the workforce from a specialised association:
Funds to train the handicapped to enter the workforce (Fonds pour l'insertion professionnelle des
personnes handicapées (AGEFIPH)).
- Some retirement funding schemes, more especially those for executives, can sometimes pay some
of the costs for training depending on their internal criteria for this.

7.5 Education and Training opportunities in the Security Field offered in France, scope of
the study
This table does not include all of the offers for education and training in the security field that can be
found in France. There is no official listing for all the offers and the research required to create such a
listing goes beyond the scope of this study. Therefore we have chosen to indentify a set of
programmes that are representative of the ones that can be found in France for each of the security
areas identified for our project. The most widely recognised and popular programmes can be found
in the table. There are about 20 different types of degree programme offered at the secondary level
and each one of these degrees can be offered by as many as 70 different high schools throughout
France. At the secondary level there are three levels of diploma are offered: CAP, BEP et
Baccalauréat. These programmes include several fields of security and offer opportunities for
students to pursue degrees in higher education for all the sectors of security. In the table below, we
limited the list of programmes to a selection of 15 for each category of security and type of training.
At the university level, there are about 5 levels of degree programme: DUT, BTS (two-year university
degree), Bachelor’s (Licence), Master’s (Master), and PhD (Doctorat) for each one of the security
fields. The table includes Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programmes (both professional and
research) offered in French universities. Most of these universities also offer PhD programme in the
same fields of security as those offered for the Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees. Many of the
programmes are offered either in the form of full-time study programmes or adapted for the context
of continuing education.
All of the degree programmes in the field of Protection of Persons and Property that could be found
on the internet are listed in the table. For the field of Fire Protection there are two degrees offered at
the secondary level, CAP, listed in the table. The more advanced degrees are not listed. The courses
listed for continuing education are either required or optional for professionals who want to become
in-house rescuers and first-aid workers or volunteer fire-men/women. Certification in electricity is
required for certain fields like electricity, mechanics, and others. Many large companies organise
these courses on their premises several times a year. Certified training organisations offer such
courses to smaller companies.

We were not able to identify any training in Economic Security at the secondary level. This field of
study can be found at the university level or in continuing education.
All of the degree programmes are listed for the field of Environmental Security. Novel training
courses are being created and offered in continuing education to accompany current ecology
projects. However, as these projects are isolated occurrences, so is the training offer which is not
repeated from one year to the next. It is difficult to list all the current training offers.
There are programmes in Medical Security at the secondary and tertiary levels and in continuing
education. Continuing education programmes are primarily offered by private organisations and a
complete listing of these courses is not provided in this study.
A Master’s degree in “Technological Risks, the Environment and Security” is the major type of
training offered in the Technology Security field. Other programmes are offered by the “Grandes
Ecoles”.
A Master’s degree is offered in the area of Transportation Security at several universities. Distance
education programmes are also offered in this field.
All of the programmes we could find for the field of Energy Security are listed in the table. We were
not able to identify any degree programmes other than the Master’s degree.
Only Master’s degrees and MBAs are listed for the area of Information Security.
There are 4 military high schools in France which offer programmes in Military Security, National
Security and International Security. Additionally there are specialised Master’s programmes. It is
possible to take competitive exams to gain entrance into one of the 13 police academies or military
academies for the « gendarmerie ».
The table is an exhaustive list of existing degrees in the field of security which requires continuous
research and updating in order to accurately reflect the numerous degrees that are offered in France
and the numerous institutions which offer the programmes.
