Intake

• Before you start the intake, the intaker should be trained for working with youngsters in prison

• The intaker should in conversation in stead of go through the questions

• Not every intakes leads to an APL proces• You have to chose whether it should lead to an

APL or an advise• Motivation is a key point so should be included

somewhere e.g. Emanuel video or other tool to motivate

Portfolio• Portfolio should look more attractive• The agreement in the portfolio should be on a more understandable

language level for the youngsters (Italy used a 10 golden rule-list)• Generic competences should be included in the portfolio model• Language used is sometimes too complex• CV-part was usable.PT used Europass, but this was too

complicated and too much related to people with lots of work experience

• Goalsetting: maybe we can put in the SMART criteria in the portfolio• Training the portfolio coaches in prison might help to improve the

way of working• Sometimes both youngsters as well as the tutors need more support

to use the portfolio

Validation phase

• Quality criteria checklist should be available at the beginning (everyone should know the criteria from the start)

• It Italy not all aspects are applicable

• Some criteria wer not possible in the context. Like doing an assessment in two settings

Assessing the youngsters

• If you do everyting right till now, the assesment will run properly

• The assessment is seen as exciting by the youngsters. The assessor has to realise how this feels for the youngsters and create a save environment

• Everyone used several methods for assessing• Make sure that if you start an APL procedure, you know

where to find an assessor for the standard you want to use. Perhaps you have to create a database with assessors (Portugal already has such a database).

• Planning assessors was more difficult than foreseen.• In Italy you need the province for assessment. This will

not be possible within the timeline of the project.

Report

• In the Netherlands is according to the national standards so it is set

• In Portugal it is difficult to use it because there is a different standard. Ana will send her repprts in the form she used

• Edi used her own format

Accreditation phase

• In Italy at the end of the year the national qualification framework will be ready, but it will not be possible yet to make a comparison between the regional and the national level. The accreditation in the project will be on a regional level and with a certificate from CSCS

• In Portugal the accreditation will be on a project level and it will be linked to the national qualification level.

• In the Netherlands we can probably use EVP (APL till report phase, without accreditation)

• Maybe we can give the boys a certificate for being part of the project (certificate; Simone & Wim will prepare this)

Logbooks

• They should be filled in directly after the APL procedure
