The graduate profile is the answer to the question of who you want the person graduating from a particular stage of education to be. We invite you to participate in the public consultations. All comments, thoughts and suggestions will allow us to describe the skills that can be developed together and attained through different paths.

Standards ensure quality and credibility and help to build the microcredentials system in Poland – this is one of the most important premises of the Microcredentials Advisory Group meeting, which took place on September 27, 2024. The members of the Group help the experts working in IBE’s microcredentials project to develop these standards so that they guarantee the highest quality of this certification system in our country.

A presentation of the draft graduate profile, a press conference, an invitation to participate in the public consultations and a question-and-answer session – all this is what happened at the event entitled ‘Let’s do it together this time – consultations starting on the Graduate Profile’. What follows is a summary of the event.

Our thoughts at the Educational Research Institute go out to the people and communities affected by the recent floods. In relation to this, we are making available a package of materials for conducting educational activities to help those in the affected areas. They have been structured in such a way that many of the tips for coping with a crisis can be used not only by children and youth, but also by adults.

The first in a series of meetings with education system staff is behind us! The event, held on September 19 in Lublin and organised by the project “Supporting the accessibility of education for children and youth”, was an opportunity to exchange experiences and take a closer look at the issue of assessment in primary schools.

We are continually following the development of the flood situation impacting several of our country's regions. In these difficult times, our thoughts are with the affected people who are struggling with the aftermath of the floods or still working to prevent them. In view of this situation, we are postponing the meeting to launch the nationwide public consultation on the graduate profile scheduled for September 20. Under the current circumstances, the most important thing is to unite and help all those affected by this natural disaster.

We encourage you to familiarise yourself with the working draft of the core curriculum for the subject of civics education in the version for general and vocational secondary schools and for the stage 1 sectoral vocational school.
