Contribution
In recent years, APL has become an important instrument for managing human resources and promoting convergence between the world of education and the world of work across various sectors of the economy. The take-up of APL has been supported since 2000 by the operation of an "expert centre". The role of this centre has been to work with APL stakeholders to increase participation in Lifelong learning. The experimental phase ended in 2004. The success of the centre in reaching these goals was evaluated mid-term in 2002. This paper will primarily focus on the results of the mid-term evaluation, including the take-up of APL; the benefits resulting from the use of APL were analysed for the stakeholders involved; the accessibility of the APL procedures were evaluated and factors identified to increase the extensive use of APL. Final reflections will be made on the lessons for the Common European Principles.
