Abstract
The EU project ADLAB PRO has been devised with the main aim of creating free-access, flexible, didactic materials of a modular and customizable nature for the training of an extremely important yet little known professional figure with a key role in the field of media accessibility: the audio describer. One of the most important and challenging stages of the construction of the ADLAB PRO course curriculum for expert audio description professionals has been the attribution of ECTS and ECVETS to each of its educational components. ECTS and ECVETS attribution is in fact crucial when producing a course that aims at being transparent and easily recognized in formal and informal education and training systems. In this paper, the process of ECTS and ECVET attribution to the ADLAB PRO course is described in detail and it is complemented by general reflections on the role of accreditation. Besides affecting directly prospective trainer and trainees interested in audio description and the audiovisual translation market, this paper contributes as possible reference for the growing number of EU projects that nowadays set curriculum design as their main goal.
