Co-ordination mechanisms
Term
Co-ordination mechanisms
Definition
Processes, systems or organisational structures used to facilitate people or organisations co-ordinating their work or interventions together.
Comment
Co-ordination of lifelong guidance activities is likely to require a co-ordinating structure, with operational powers and funding (and possibly a contract or legal mandate). The establishment of national fora is one way that has been used to encourage co-ordination of lifelong guidance activities.
It could also involve the sharing of responsibility for different activities in a programme of careers work.

Co-operation mechanisms
Term
Co-operation mechanisms
Definition
Processes, systems or organisational structures used to facilitate people or organisations working together.
Comment
Lifelong guidance requires co-operation between partners, within existing structures. This might be largely informal in nature, or based on a co-operation agreement with decision-making powers being retained by each partner.
Co-operation mechanisms could cover a variety of settings, e.g. between different levels in education/training, across national boundaries, or between education and the labour market. They could also cover co-operation between individuals working in different settings or between the organisations they work for.
