Work-oriented adult basic education in the German AlphaDekade

This year's AlphaDekade conference took place in Nürnberg from 27 to 28 September 2022, this time focusing on work-oriented adult basic education.

The conference brought together numerous stakeholders from practice, politics and science. Lectures, thematic forums and panel discussions provided information and invited exchange. At a project fair, various project organisers presented their work and invited people to talk. Eva Steinheimer (3s) discussed with Ingrid Kemper (Adult Education Initiative, Austria) and Astri Pestalozzi (Directorate for Higher Education and Skills, Norway) on a panel about “Work-oriented adult basic education and Upskilling Pathways from a European perspective”.
