- 1. Dear participant! The social research institution WISDOM (AT) and six partners from other European (research) institutions from the EU, are conducting a study called „NoBordersManual in elderly care“ to develop a „common language“ to help the cross-border countries AT, BG, HU, RO and SI to internationalise, standardise and assess their own vocational education and training systems in the field „elderly care“ (http://www.adam-europe.eu/prj/8459/project_8459_en.pdf). For this reason we are developing a Competence Matrix identifying competences and skills of an elderly caregiver from novice1 (beginner) to expert2. This matrix opens systems up towards a more flexible approach than can include recognition of prior learning and credit transfer arrangements in the vocational field „elderly care“. Definition „competences“ We are focussing on Becker & Spöttl´s concept of competence and on Dreyfus´ model of Skill Acquisition in our study: Becker and Spöttl3 see competence as an expertise, which becomes apparent as performance in a person´s actions. The Dreyfus model4 describes the process of skill acquisition. It focuses on situated skillful behavior and use of knowledge. It takes into account increments in skilled performance based upon experience as well as education. According to the Dreyfus model, one passes through several levels of proficiency (process of progression): novice, advanced beginner, competent, proficient, expert. This study has been funded with the support of the European Commission. Coordination: The Austrian social science research institute WISDOM (AT), Univ. Doc. Dr. Karl H. Müller. Please support us! How? Please send the completed questionnaire to Mag. Eva Leuprecht, MA eva.leuprecht@wisdom.at by email until February 28th 2013 at the latest. Many thanks! Enclosed we are sending you the Competence Matrix (draft). Please print the MATRIX out. You need the Matrix to answer questions 7, 8 and 9 in the questionnaire. Many thanks! Please contact me if you have any questions! Thank you for your participation! Kind regards, Mag. Eva Leuprecht, MA www.wisdom.at 1 Beginner, without specific education, educational level „low vocational education and training. 2 Expert, educational level „higher education programmes“. Note: This project intends to develop a Competence Matrix useful for identifying overlapping areas between vocational education and training (VET) and higher education programmes (HE) and therefore the scope of the Competence Matrix „Elderly care“ has to be broadened to include at least some steps of competence development relevant for higher education. 3 Becker, M./Spöttl, G.: Berufswissenschaftliche Forschung.
