About the European RPL Network (ERPL Network)
The European Network for Recognition of Prior Learning (ERPL Network) is the association of national networks and institutions in higher education in Europe working on Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL).
The core purpose of the network is to enhance the use of RPL by supporting the members in establishing, maintaining and fostering sustainable national networks and by generating an added value for the members of the national networks or institutions. We therefore strive to contribute to European and national policy dialogues and strategy development as well as to share and disseminate information and experience on topics, content and new developments of RPL within and beyond the network. The network shall foster trust in the purpose and procedures of RPL.
This year’s conference is hosted by the Recognition of Prior Learning in Higher Education, a HCI Pillar 3 Project, and co-sponsored by the Irish Universities Association and the Technological Universities Association.
