Welcome to Qatrain - Quality Assurance and Accessible Training
Document Actions
The QATRAIN Project focuses on Quality Assurance and Accessible TRAINing in Europe. QATRAIN is a Leonardo da Vinci funded project that aims to help remove barriers to participation for disabled people in mainstream Vocational Education and Training (VET). This transnational project, with partners in the UK, Bulgaria, France, Greece, and Poland, helps VET providers to develop a more inclusive approach to the design of teaching, learning and assessment strategies through the development of a web based resource that provides Strategies for Creating Inclusive Programmes of Study (SCIPS). In turn, this will enable disabled students to participate more fully in Vocational Education and Training. SCIPS has been further developed by the Qatrain project, and has now been published in the countries identified below.
To visit the SCIPS site in the country of your choice, just click on the relevant flag below, the headings on each national site (e.g. 'home', 'about', 'contact us' etc.) are always shown in the language of the country from where you are logging on.
