VET Validation in Spain
The Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport designs national
qualifications (VET diplomas), defines learning outcomes, modules and
assessment criteria. It is also the body responsible for the assignment of
credits and the official validation and recognition of foreign qualifications.
Modules of Higher Vocational Education and Training Programmes (i.e.
ISCED 5B) have ECTS assigned since they are post secondary nontertiary education.
The new Basic VET and the Intermediate Vocational Education and
Training Programmes (i.e. ISCED 3B) are also unit-based (modular). The
units of learning outcomes may be accumulated and transferred but do not
have credit points attached.

ECVET in Spain
The Directorate General for VET of the Spanish Ministry of
Education, Culture and Sport is the body responsible for any
development in the field of IVET, as well as the National Contact
Point for ECVET.
Collaboration with the Technical Committee for VET in
which all the regions’ representatives participate.
Technical issues are also discussed, debated with the
regions’ directors and employers´ organisations and trade
unions representatives at the different advisory bodies
existing for VET issues.
The National Agency (SEPIE) is at the disposal of the
Directorate General for VET and the Technical Committee for
VET to support the implementation of the ECVET system.

Status of ECVET in Spain
Compatibility
Status
• The unit-based system also
supports the process of
validation of non-formal and
informal learning. Spain
has, therefore, a transfer
system which is compatible
with ECVET principles and
technical specifications, but
this ECVET system, as
such, has not been
implemented yet
• Any policy initiatives on
ECVET
implementation
within
the
Spanish
Qualification System are
currently on hold, and
pending of the final approval of
NQF. If policy-decision is taken,
the existing credit system can
be easily brought closer to
ECVET.
The
Spanish
Government will have to
regulate
ECVET,
when
possible and needed, and it will
apply to all parties.
