This European Union competency profile document outlines the Guidance and Validation Practitioners’ Competence Profile. The Competence Profile is structured into: a) more general transversal competences of guidance and validation practitioners – these are applicable in different validation stages and for different purposes (e.g. working with validation candidates, working with colleagues, organisational purposes, one’s own further development; b) technical competences related to the use of concrete tools, methods and techniques, etc. at (a) specific validation stage(s) and c) competences specifically used for validating transversal skills / guiding candidates through the identification, understanding, documentation, etc. of their own transversal competences.
