CEDEFOP has just launched a call for papers for a reference publication on the monitoring and evaluation of career guidance systems and services for adults, entitled ‘Towards European standards for monitoring and evaluation of lifelong guidance systems and services’ which can be downloaded here: https://www.cedefop.europa.eu/files/2020_11_16_call_for_papers_cedefop_careersmonitoring.pdf

Contributions will be used for developing a methodological proposal for European standards for monitoring and evaluation.

While the scope of the call concerns European Union countries, the detailed questions provided in the Call are relevant for all countries and worthy of study in themselves. Monitoring and evaluation are normally related to policy implementation so the scope of the questions has to be viewed with reference to the existence of policies and their content, not evident from the questions in isolation.

18th January 2021 is the closing date for responses to the Call.
