The main objective of the project is to develop and pilot a tool called "A Roadmap to Inclusion of students with SEN for
professionals in VET learning environments" in the four partner countries. The Roadmap is developed by transferring a development tool “Index for Inclusion” (Booth & Ainscow, 2002) from the basic education sector to the VET sector, and
targeted primarily at VET institution managers, administration and also teachers. The tool looks at the inclusion from three perspectives: policy, culture and practices. It has been used in inclusive development processes in Finland (see http://kehitysvammaliitto.fi/) and in several other European countries as well as world-wide (see http://www.eenet.org.uk/index.php).
