Knowhow - extended, KNOWHOW II, is supported by a grant under the EU - Lifelong Learning Program as a Leonardo da Vinci Transfer of Innovation Project.

The aim of the Knowhow II project ist to create two study lines in creative industries (drawing) and in design (textiles) based on a learning methodology developed in the KnowHow project 2004-2007. All the partner institutes will adapt their current lines of study in drawing and textiles to this methodology.

The project also aims to adapt the study lines to the European Qualification Framework EQF, thus creating sectoral qualification in drawing and textiles. The studies will be on level 4 (EQF) and create a link to the 5th level.

One objective of the project is to develop and implement a learning outcome-based award credit point system, ECVET, for across the border transfer and to enhance transparency and quality of ART/VET education programmes in the European countries. Such a tool will help the education sector to assess learning outcomes, acquired at home and in other courntries in a simple manner.

The Knowhow methodology of learning and the model of study lines could very well be created for more sectors and thus serve to increase student mobility and use of the Europass tool and later, aid workers mobility within different European countries.
