Thirty Years of SVEB Certificates: What Hungary Can Learn from Switzerland’s Success Story in Adult Educator Professionalisation

The 30th anniversary of the SVEB certificates is therefore not only a Swiss professional milestone. It is also a highly relevant reference point for countries that want to strengthen the quality of adult learning, the recognition of adult educators and the development of coherent qualification systems.
