Kind-of-Diploma for German Upper Secondary School Diploma (see also #44) #64
Comments
Message for EMREX executive committee: |
No idea why the differentiation was not put into EQF. But without that differentiation ELMO cannot be used for German upper secondary school certificates at least not for national purposes (I do not know whether it is needed for international recognitions, but for national recognitions it is needed definitely). In coordination with the EMREX EC, I therefore propose a solution that optionally supplements such a "Kind-of-Certificate" for Germany. Additional proposal: In order to be compatible with the German solution, such a supplement could be designed analogously to the "Type of HZB" in the German format XSchule (possibly with the value list that is also used there). More details (unfortunately only in German) at https://xschule.digital/web/spezifikation and in Github. Please make a proposal for a decision on how this can be implemented in ELMO. |
This can be solved by supplyinThis can be solved by supplying two "level" elements. All consumers of ELMO will read this
<level>
<type>EQF</type>
<description>European Qualification Framework</description>
<value>4</value>
</level>
This level will be ignored by everyone except German clients.
<level>
<type>HZB</type>
<description>Upper secondary general education school leaving certificate</description>
<value>Allgemeine Hochschulreife</value>
</level> |
Implemented in V1.7 |
Note: This is a requirement that is part of Issue #44 and is created as a separate issue for ease of processing.
For upper secondary school diplomas (in German “Hochschulzugangsberechtigungen”, short HZB) Germany needs the diploma learning-opportunity’s kind-of-diploma to verify whether this certificate qualifies the applicant to study the study program he applies for. E.g.
Unfortunately EQF-levels are not enough for our purposes. Especially for diplomas within EQF 4 we need more differentiations e.g.
It is to be clarified, how the different German upper secondary school education certificates can be mapped in the ELMO data structure. We do not have precisely this differentiation in EQF level 4, even at the German national level (see https://www.cedefop.europa.eu/files/germany_-_european_inventory_on_nqf_2018.pdf page 13):
Germany users need an extension of the ELMO standard here so that we can automatically assign the digital HZBs. Or is there another way to get the information out of ELMO structure for German users?
By the way: ELM (or EDCI) have the same problem (EQF or NQF as attribute of "qualification").
