Welcome to the website of the EQUAL-CLASS project – 'Engineers qualified in higher non-university VET institutions – providing arguments and evidence for NQF/EQF classification‘
EQUAL-CLASS aimed to study qualifications in the field of mechatronics, electrical engineering/electronics that can be obtained in higher non-university VET institutions or comparable institutions in Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Lithuania, and Portugal. The qualifications were examined from three different perspectives: curricula, students and graduates.
