Abstract

ELICIT is a Comenius Project which deals with the competences of EuropeanUnion Citizenship education. During the past two years about 30 representatives of 12 European countries have been working on the framework of teacher competences which can make integration of EU-knowledge and European citizenship education successful in member states. The framework of competences, publications and the results of the Project can be seen on the ELICIT website. In this article the importance of foreign language competences, an integrated part of the Framework will be examined. In European citizenship education foreign language competences are a means of successful work in the educational process for teachers throughout the education system. The research results and an exploration of the Framework of Competences will be presented in this article, together with the module on EU citizenship education offered to students in four EU higher education institutions from September 2014.
