Project title : 2.7 System Change and Life-long Learning Title of assignment: Torino Process Level 2: Review of policies for lifelong learning in Tunisia, Morocco, and Jordan Services requested: International and in-country expertise, organization of site visits, production of policy review reports Start date: September 2022 End date: March 2023 Number of experts: 4 DRS is looking for one international expert to support ETF in implementing the reviews of LLL policies in selected countries . The overarching goal of the country policy reviews is twofold: to explain the monitoring results (Level 1) and provide guidance for timely policy actions in support of system change for lifelong learning in areas of importance to partner countries (see examples of these thematic areas in the matrix below and for further details please consult the attached working paper Torino Process Reviews of policies for LLL: Scope and key thematic areas, Samples of guiding questions, Selected good EU practices). The reviews of policies for the LLL process are designed to be participatory and carried out on-demand. This means that they are a voluntary exercise implemented in close cooperation with ETF partner countries through site visits, consultations, and other formats of dialogue and policy co-creation. Over the years, the TRP has demonstrated that the joint work of national and international counterparts can deliver insights and policy recommendations that are relevant, accepted, and in line with the latest international developments in areas of relevance to VET reform. This participatory approach leans on the following principles: Clarity of scope and purpose agreed with the country, representativeness and inclusiveness of stakeholders, and systemic perspective.
