EELLSS makes use of LEVEL 5 system which is specifically designed to assess personal, social and organisational competence developments in rather non- and informal learning settings. The competence development of both students and teachers in the project will be validated with LEVEL5, a validation approach and software which has been developed by a consortium of experts from 22 countries since 2007.

The LEVEL5 system is specifically designed to validate personal, social and organisational competence developments in rather non-formal and informal learning settings.  It is based on a 3-dimensio­nal approach to validate cog­nitive, activity related and affective learning outcomes – the LEVEL5 cube. LEVEL5 is a holistic learning process that benefits the learner, learning providers and host entrepreneurs. LEVEL5 has been developed by the network REVEAL aimed to promote, visualise and validate informal and non-formal learning.
