It outlines the study context, purpose, research approach, and analytical framework, focusing on the shift from intended to achieved learning outcomes and how they are used in practice. The paper reviews the concept of alignment, the assessment criteria role, and how formative and summative assessment interact with learning outcomes. It also evaluates the influence of learning-context factors and discusses assessing complex transversal skills, then compares national approaches in IVET and VET.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":40,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/the-influence-of-learning-outcomes-on-assessment-cedefop-research-paper/583338/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/the-influence-of-learning-outcomes-on-assessment-cedefop-research-paper/583338.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Jake","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-01","2026-10-15",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":24},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What is the main purpose of the study?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"The study investigates the influence of learning outcomes on assessment by examining how intended and achieved learning outcomes are used in practice and how this shapes assessment approaches.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"How does the research define the analytical framework for learning outcomes and assessment?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"The framework links intended to achieved learning outcomes and analyses actions and levels involved in implementing a learning-outcomes-based approach in assessment, including stakeholder roles.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"Which national factors and alignment mechanisms are considered?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"The paper reviews the concept of alignment and discusses national provisions, quality assurance approaches, limitations observed, and support and guidance at the national level within IVET and VET contexts.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},583338,1792192103,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":39,"category_name":40,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":24,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":139,"language":140,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":141,"faqs":142,"seo_title":143,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":144,"read_time":145,"preview_page_count":4},962084928904,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_155a257f0dc6eb9ab79c44ca47cae57d","EN    1831-5860   \nResearch paper  \nThe influence of learning outcomeson assessment  \nThe influence of learning outcomes on assessment  \nLuxembourg: Publications Office of the European Union, 2026  \nPlease cite this publication as:  \nCedefop.
