Step 2 – Assess your current position

1. Individually

Please read the text below individually: which phase suits your training now? Which indicators apply or do not apply to the situation your training is in?

2. Collectively

After a few minutes please discuss your personal findings in the group. Try to find a shared opinion by listening carefully to everyone’s arguments. Try to avoid voting. Click the green button if all indicators are fulfilled, click the blue button if not all indicators are met. Then click the button which helps you to identify your ambition: what is the next phase you want to go to?

A phase is completed if all indicators are met – and all of those of the phases before! So phase 3 can only be achieved if all indicators of phase 1 and 2 are met.

Vision

The educational programme has its own vision about sustainability. This vision concerns sustainability within the own field of expertise and the consequences for the educational policy.

It is possible that there is a vision of sustainability within the school that stretches across the whole institution. To ‘score’ this criterion, the educational programme needs to translate this vision to their own programme.

1
Activity oriented
- The educational programme has a vision for sustainability.
- This vision is implicit: the vision has not been recorded in any documents.
2
Process oriented
- The vision is explicit: the vision has been recorded in the programme’s internal documents. For example, in the year planning.
3
System oriented
- The whole team is involved in drawing up the vision.
- The educational programme’s vision has been translated to concrete policies.
- Students are involved with the development and evaluation of the vision.
4
Chain oriented
- Green secondary vocational education, green higher vocational education and regional businesses are involved with the development and evaluation of the vision.
5
Society oriented
- The vision is continually kept up-to-date, along with social partners.
- The school also has a vision for long-term developments in society, and the school’s role is included in this. With this, the vision of sustainability has been integrated.
