ECTS Information Package/Course Catalogue MLO Application Profile

Scope

This CEN Workshop Agreement defines refinements to the MLO Information Model for representing the ECTS IP/CC, based on best practice guidance offered to institutions seeking the honorary distinction of an ECTS Label .
The main benefit that will result from widespread use of the Curriculum Exchange Format (CEF) will be that learners and teachers will be able to find resources using a curriculum that they are familiar with and using their preferred language. The resources they find may come from lots of different sources and may have been originally organised by a different curriculum.

Developers or publishers of web sites, tools, learning platforms and resources can all share information in an agreed way making it easier for systems to interoperate. The impact on learners and teachers will be smoother moving between different software systems and web sites and result in a more personalised experience.
