Narrative Description of the Project:

The objective of this contract is as follows:
To put in place a comprehensive strategic setting for the reform of the Armenian VET system and to provide the legal framework for the effective development and implementation of the TACIS project on the “Support to the reform of the Armenian VET system”

One of the key aspects to be considered is the consultation process involved in the elaboration of the VET legislation. The experience in some partner countries has demonstrated the importance and effectiveness of the involvement of all the national key actors in the various drafting phases. The offering of the draft law to public debate with the involvement of national and international actors and representatives to provide comments and proposals has been shown to be a most effective way of preparing an acceptable new law.
