Historical
Summary
“The
place we belong to represents an essential attitude in life. Therefore, it is
our responsibility to be the protagonists of a periphery region, since our will
is a reflex of several anonymous desires, in which this role is accepted at a pluridimensional level. From dream to dream, project to
project we are trying to win the battle of modernization.”
The
municipalities of Arcos de Valdevez,
Melgaço and Paredes de Coura,
extended by a wide area in the interior of the Alto Minho region, are
characterized by a variety of beauty. Its unique landscape unfolds through
fresh and green fields with streams and extensive mountain’s, a delimiting
element of the horizon. In this bucolic aspect – rural and integrated in the
National Park of Peneda- Gerês
– the population is driven by ancient traditions, suffering the difficulties of
the periphery and interior regions, which provoked a high rate of emigration in
the 60’s and 70’s.
In
this region, deeply marked by its interior, with difficult accesses and weak
resources, the population gradually moved to other districts and foreign
countries, which resulted in a systematic exodus, leaving this territory even
more deserted.
The
lack of appropriate national policies, particularly those regarding the
educational system and course options, didn’t provide youths with suitable
choices, or those required for the development of these municipalities: Arcos de Valdevez, Ponte da
Barca, Melgaço and Paredes de Coura.
On the
other hand, the integration of Portugal in the European Community contributed
towards the development of this isolated area, through incentives created under
the global support programme. Thus, due to the existence of structural funds,
all the socio- economic aspects evolved slowly, through new horizons, exposing
the huge lack of qualified labour.
Therefore,
after the identification of needs, list of structural problems and perspective
of developmental strategies, a generic programme was constituted which tends to
diminish the boundaries of modernization.
Defined
as priority goals, are those which target new generations, focusing the
implementation of viable local structure that develops a process of demographic
placement.
The
paradigmatic model of Vocational Schools supported in articulation with the
State/Civil society, followed directional objectives for local development
consolidating modern models of training, enhancers of the technicians required
for local development.
The
passage from the hoe to the computer and then to the competitive market, forces
a revolution of mentalities, as well as, the acquisition of new behaviours and
skills. The economic development of the region passes through a new analysis of
the system regarding concepts and models, which assumes the coverage of the
following training areas:
Administration,
Services and Commerce; Agro-Food and Aquatic
Production; Environment and Natural Resources; Civil Construction; Electricity
and Electronics; Hospitality and Tourism; Information, Communication and
Documentation; Metalworking. Cultural Heritage and Artistic Production. These
training areas enhance local needs in reference to the strategic investment of
human resources for the development of an isolated area.
We
consider ourselves recipients of a programme that encourages our country’s
interior regions, in a moment where residents battle
for development, a fight against desertion, in favour of a natural balance.
There
will be no relation between man/environment, community/region if we are not
capable of ensuring a strategic strategy needed for the placement of our youth
population. In life, everything should be done with love, humour and passion.
Epralima arose as a public
interest cooperative with limited responsibility, composed of the following
institutions: Municipalities of Arcos de Valdevez and Ponte da Barca, Arcuense
Heritage Study Group, Frei Agostinho da Cruz e Diogo Bernardes Cultural Centre, Commercial and Industrial
Association of Arcos de Valdevez
and Ponte da Barca, and the Mutual Agricultural Credit Bank of do Alto Minho.
As a local development agent, Epralima standardized the conquest of the following goals:
-
Placement of the juvenile and adult population pertaining to the
school’s intervening area;
-
Decrease the ratio of school dropouts and unsuccessfulness;
-
Appreciation
of
endogenous potential;
-
Revitalization of the social structure taking into account equal
opportunities;
- Optimization of endogenous resources.
Thus, Epralima has been guiding its
development according to the following strategies:
-
Prepare youths and adults towards the exercise of a qualified
profession;
-
Develop mechanisms in which Epralima and the
local economic, professional and cultural institutions and associations can
create better relationships;
-
Provide trainees with professional experience and contact with the
labour market, preparing them for an adequate socio-economic insertion;
-
Promote in conjunction with other local agents and institutions, the
accomplishment of a training project for qualified human resources that
responds to the developmental needs integrated in the country, particularly at
the regional and local levels;
-
Provide students with a general, scientific and technological training,
solid enough to prepare them for the workforce and to later continue their
studies, particularly through the following training modalities;
Vocational courses:
o Specialized Technological or
Artistic Courses;
o Vocational courses aimed at
students, which have completed the second cycle of primary education and
demonstrate skills and preferences in the artistic field, which leads to the
conclusion of primary education, as well as a skills certification – level II;
o Primary or secondary night courses
which include a skills certification – level II or III;
o Training courses at night for
working individuals who intend to raise their level of professional
qualifications or are determined to refresh their knowledge through training
and retraining;
o Programmes to support youth
integration in the labour market who graduated from elementary school or high
school (regular or vocational);
o Other professional training
initiatives, as long as they contain an adequate educational dimension, namely
through the socio-cultural training component, and which results from the
adaptation of vocational courses’ curricular plans to the characteristics,
needs and potentialities of the socio-economic environment;
o Courses of a vocational nature that
allow the conclusion of primary education and grant a diploma, as well as, a
skills certification – level II.
Towards
a sustainable Europe by 2030, social investment must remain a key priority in
education, training and lifelong learning, working conditions, health care and
long-term care, social inclusion and minority rights, gender equality, rural
development. (Source: Reflection Paper for a Sustainable Europe by 2030,
European Commission)
With
an eye on the future, and aware of the need to adapt to the new paradigms of
the teaching and learning process, EPRALIMA has adapted its project to the
needs of young people of the twenty-first century and to what is recommended
for the current school at European level.
The
development of Community Projects and participation in Erasmus programmes
fulfils the treatment of the European Dimension of Education and the
development of a European Citizenship, contributing to the knowledge and
involvement of students in the project of European construction, encouraging
their participation and promoting identification with European values. The aim
is to promote a better knowledge of Europe and the European Union, in particular
its institutions, its cultural and natural heritage and the challenges facing
contemporary Europe.
The
preservation of European citizenship values requires an integrative
approach that values the promotion of language learning and linguistic diversity,
the incorporation of the binomial culture and education as a transversal
dimension, the promotion of active European citizenship, respect for democracy
and human rights, as well as the fight against all forms of exclusion. To this
end, the use of funding
and development of European projects has proved to be fundamental to increase the
development of personal and social skills that provide the aptitude for
intercultural dialogue.
This
finding has been verified in the conclusions of the successive evaluations of
the mobility projects that Epralima has implemented
consecutively since 1999. In this regard, it should be noted that the
evaluation of those who have benefited from a European experience clearly
endorses the importance of this type of initiative for the development of
intercultural competences, for the active spirit in favour of European
citizenship, tolerance for other peoples and cultures and the development of
language skills, even going beyond the valorization
of the development of competences related to the technical and professional
components that for inherently are
intertwined with this type of initiative. It is interesting to note that in the
opinion of most young people, the initial resistance and fears to carry out a
transnational experience is deconstructed when they carry out a learning
experience abroad, particularly when they are confronted with different
cultures and when they establish a closer relationship with other peoples. It
can even be said that Europe, which until then was a distant and abstract
reality, is now, in the perception of young people, an integral part of their
life and vision of the present and the future, supported by values of
tolerance, openness to dialogue, inclusion, respect for human rights and
diversity, inclusion.
On the
other hand, students acquire a multipurpose vision and posture on the
development prospects of their professional area, which may open up the range
even more in choosing their future job. These are the main catalysts that drive
the transition to working life, as well as their future performance as
professionals.
Increasingly,
Epralima has acquired higher quality in the
intervention developed, the result of permanent experimentation, transfer and
dissemination of innovations, having generated a multiplier effect and an
excellent instrument for increasing the "Europeanization" of the
school. Some evidence is listed below:
Epralima has created
international cooperation ties with various entities, adding up to more than
200 partnerships created within the framework of Erasmus projects;
Since
1999, Epralima has placed young people/adults in
international internships within the framework of the previous mobility actions
of the Leonardo da Vinci Programme;
There
has been a gradual growth in the reception of VET learners and staff from
several countries: Lithuania, Italy, the United Kingdom, Germany, Romania,
Macedonia, France, which have resulted in higher value-added internships with
companies in the region.
• All those who have benefited from
European mobility for learning purposes, have obtained the certification of
their competences, namely through the Training Passport and subsequently the Europass – Mobility;
• Through participation in mobility
projects, young people were confronted for the first time with European tools
for recording their competences, all of whom developed the Europass
CV in English and underwent the self-assessment process for the preparation of
the language passport.
• Expanded employment opportunities for
those who benefited from these initiatives, as evidenced by the satisfactory
employability rates obtained by the school's students.
• The visibility of Epralima
has increased among the surrounding community, having generated, year after
year, an escalation in the number of community initiatives developed;
• The procedures for planning, managing
and evaluating and recognising learning outcomes have improved substantially,
as a result of the experience and capacity installed at the level of
international cooperation practices, and in the innovation in the work
processes of the participating institutions, achieved through the development
of networks and partnerships.
The
institution defines as its mission
- To
train intermediate technicians, in which the "knowing", "knowing
how to do", "knowing how to be", "knowing how to be"
and "knowing how to live together" are privileged, in order to form
supportive, active, informed, and creative, innovative citizens, prepared for a
European citizenship and for the new challenges of the knowledge society and
the industrial revolution, and that can settle, also, at local level and
contribute as an added value in their respective areas of intervention.
It is
also the mission of the institution to qualify young people and adults, with
rigor, demand, innovation and professionalism, prepared for a labour market
increasingly competitive, rigorous, global and constantly changing, assuming
themselves as full citizens, critical and intervening in a democratic society,
modern and developed.
The
institution also assumes as its mission to contribute to the continuous
training of active and strengthen the links between school education and
vocational training.
Principles and Values
The
values that guide us are framed within a humanistic-based profile, taking into
account a society centered on the person and on human
dignity as fundamental values.
The
principles and values that guide our educational action are embodied in the
Profile of Students Leaving Compulsory Schooling and in the Profile of Students
Leaving Compulsory Schooling.
Principles and values that
guide educational action:
Responsibility and integrity;
Participation, cooperation and teamwork;
Autonomy and personal development;
Personal relationships and citizenship;
Curiosity, reflection and innovation;
Critical and creative thinking;
Inclusion and Sustainability;
Citizenship and Participation;
Critical Thinking and Creative Thinking;
Interpersonal Relationship;
Personal Development and Autonomy.
Characterization of the geographical area of coverage
The prospective diagnosis of the socio-economic
and cultural reality of the geographical area of coverage resulted from a set
of analyses prepared on the themes of economic, social and cultural development
and allowed to identify the main strengths and weaknesses, as well as
bottlenecks and potential that may influence its future development. Basic information
from various sources was used, such as Thematic Operational Programs, Regional
Operational Programs, Sectoral Strategic Plans, Statistical Data, Regional
Development Plans, Social Network Diagnoses, statistical data, and Municipal
Strategic Plans.
The population is an essential
element of characterization of a society, so it is necessary to understand the
movements in order to make possible the economic, social and cultural planning
of a given territory. In this context, it was sought, within this thematic
area, to present and analyze a set of statistical
data, characterizing the demographic situation of the municipalities, namely,
resident population by sex and age group, population density; aging index;
dependency index; effective growth rate; gross birth and death rate and natural
growth rate.

Components of a Learning Outcomes Unit
A unit of
learning outcomes should consist of the following components:
·
Title of the Qualification to which the Unit relates
·
EQF level
·
Unit title
The Unit title should be as short as possible and
should reflect the relevance of the Learning Outcomes to the Labour Market. The
title should reflect the learning outcomes contained in the unit overall and
not focus on just one part of them.
Ø Key Tasks
The key tasks are
the main technical tasks that the student has to perform in order to
obtain/achieve a given set of outputs/outcomes.
Each key task is expressed in a simple, short and
objective statement that must begin with the active verb indicating the key
task that the student has to perform, conjugated in the infinitive.
Ø Knowledge
Knowledge is the
theoretical and/or factual body of facts, principles, theories and practices
that are related to an area of work or study.
Knowledge is described in terms of what the learner
knows and understands.
Ø
Competences
A Competency is
considered the proven ability to use knowledge, skills and personal, social
and/or methodological abilities in situations of academic life or for personal
and professional development.
Competences are
described in terms of what the student does, applying knowledge, skills and
proven abilities: attitudes, personal, social and methodological skills.
Ø Performance
Criteria
Performance
Criteria are the quality requirements associated with performance and the
quality criteria that ensure that the individual acts competently (quality
required for achievements).
Performance
criteria are specifically linked to each key task and its associated set of
knowledge, skills and competencies.
Performance criteria are measurable, observable and
provide important qualitative information about expected performance.
Ø Outputs / Results
Outputs are the
observable results, the products obtained or the evidence.
Outputs are
directly associated with the key tasks and performance criteria and are the
observable outcome of the performance.
Outputs are
described in a clear, objective and summarised way, expressing the evidence or
professional outcomes that are core to a particular qualification.
Ø Code (if applicable)
The Unit title
should contain the national code that is used in the national qualifications
system (if applicable).
In cases where
the reformulation work on the qualification has involved reformulating the
existing unit description to a focus on learning process outcomes, rather than
the existing description focusing on inputs to the learning process, but
without any change to the learning process outcomes that would be achieved for
a learner(s) with a successful assessment, the existing code in the national
system is retained. In cases where the reformulation of the qualification has
additionally involved, for example, the dismemberment of modules into several
units of learning outcomes, the code should be assigned as follows: assignment
of the national code in which those learning outcomes were contained, plus an
asterisk and a whole number (1, 2, 3,...), assigned in
ascending order of the number of units of learning outcomes into which the
original module was dismembered.
Ø Number of Hours
Although the
number of hours of the Learning Outcomes Unit is not considered relevant for
the matching process, the number of hours is an indicator that helps to balance
the size of Learning Outcomes Units across countries, and is a key indicator
for the allocation of ECVET points.
Ø ECVET credit points
In order to have a comprehensive view of the overall weight of learning outcomes
in a qualification and the relative weight of Units in relation to the
qualification, each Unit should contain an indication of the number of ECVET
Points allocated to the Learning Outcomes Unit. The allocation of ECVET points
to Units of Learning Outcomes is crucial for the processes of validation and
recognition of Units when Learning Outcomes are acquired abroad.
Strategic Objectives of Intervention for
the triennium 2019/2022
The pursuit
of Epralima's European development strategy is
embodied in a Technical Centre dedicated to the development of projects, which
brings together a set of qualified human resources and through which allows
privileged access to a wide range of critical resources, either at the level of
scientific and technological knowledge, either at the level of transfer and
application of this knowledge by organizations (public and private) installed
in the territory, either in the relationship and proximity to the market and
the community of Alto Lima. In this context, Epralima
seeks to contribute to the development of the regional economic base and the valorization of local resources, promoting a set of
projects and activities on a European scale.
In the
triennium 2019 - 2022, the actions that will allow the objectives of Epralima's internationalization strategy are elected as priorities

Quality Monitoring and Evaluation of the
Internationalization Strategy
The
monitoring of the implementation and achievement of the strategic objectives
are guided according to the quality assurance and improvement cycle, supported
by quality criteria and indicators.
The
quality cycle follows four interrelated phases:
Phase
1: Planning
Establishment
of clear, appropriate, and measurable goals and objectives, in terms of
policies, procedures, tasks, and human resources.
Phase
2: Implementation
Establishing
procedures to ensure the achievement of goals and objectives (e.g., partnership
development, stakeholder involvement, resource allocation, and organizational
or operational procedures).
Phase
3: Evaluation
Designing
mechanisms for evaluating accomplishments and results, collecting and
processing data in order to make informed assessments.
Phase
4: Review
Development of
procedures for achieving targeted results and/or new objectives; after
processing feedback, key stakeholders conduct discussion and analysis in order
to design procedures for change
Figure 1: The four phases of the quality
cycle.

EPRALIMA's Internationalization
Strategy is understood as an open and dynamic document - it requires a
permanent evaluation / review of both processes and results, in order to ensure
its permanent functionality and adequacy to the reality of needs.
In this
sense, among other moments, the annual report on the implementation of
interventions and the dynamization of a reflection session triggered by the
self-evaluation will be promoted among relevant internal and external
stakeholders and can be a privileged instrument in this process, allowing the
school to mobilize all its resources and develop its potential in order to fulfill the mission it sets itself and assess the
indicators of the Plan's adequacy to the school reality. This evaluation-review
cycle will be annual and at the end of the 2019-2023 triennium the impact
results will be measured.
The
participation in networks and the signing of protocols constitutes a clear
reflection of Epralima’s strategic actions, in
pursuit of the objectives that rule their Educational Project, which are based
on increasing the articulation between the School and
the involved institutional and business environment.
The school
has been integrating in network meetings regarding the courses they administer,
through the participation of course coordinators, according to the different
areas of training:
- Administration,
services and commerce – Technical Course in Commerce Services/Sales and
Secretarial Technical Course;
- Environment
and Human Resources – Safety and Hygiene at Work and the En vironment
Technician Course;
- Civil
Construction –Civil Constructor / Constructor Management Technician;
- Design and
Drawing Technician - Project Designer;
- Electricity
and Electronics – Electronic and Electrical Installations Technician;
- Computer
Science – Computer Science Technician/ Management and Computer Technician and
Management and Computer Technician/Equipment Maintenance;
- Hospitality
and Tourism – Cookery Technician;
- Personal
and Social Development – Socio- cultural Animator/ Geriatrics Assistance.
Therefore, in
order to implement initiatives in the school which are directly related with
the entry of the graduates in the labour market, several partnerships and
protocols with strategic entities were applied in order to ensure a higher rate
of employability.
