Sažetak
Pre-college construction workforce in Croatia is divided into six educational attainment levels: basic school education, unskilled, semi–skilled, skilled, highly–skilled, and secondary school education. Workforce is educated in schools, according to regular school programmes, or on courses for additional training. The absence of a uniform qualification framework has caused different assessment of core skills and qualifications in vocational schools and courses, which has led to a jungle of vocational qualifications, often not supported by appropriate knowledge. Based on the European Qualification Framework (EQF), the Croatian Qualifications Framework (CROQF) is designed to provide nationally recognised standards and qualifications based on knowledge, skills and competences. CROQF will provide qualifications according to gained learning outcomes, which requires a reform in education. Implementation of CROQF also requires translation of existing qualifications according to new standards. These issues are considered with a purpose of defining the current qualification system, benefits of CROQF, as well as identifying potential implementation problems. The development of curricula of CROQF should be completed by the Committee for the Development of CROQF in 2012.
