(Aus-)bildung in Grenzregionen: Bildung ohne Grenzen oder Grenzen der Bildung?

Erkenntnisse aus Forschung und Praxis

Veranstalter: Leading House GOVPET, Universität St. Gallen (HSG) und Schweizerisches Observatorium für die Berufsbildung OBS EHB

Im Austausch zwischen Wissenschaft und Praxis werfen wir
Schlaglichter auf die Potentiale und Herausforderungen der Berufs-
und Hochschulbildung in Grenzregionen. Wir dis­ku­tie­ren, inwiefern
Grenzregionen «gren­zen­lo­se» Ausbildungswege ermög­li­chen und
wo sie mit bisher unüber­wind­ba­ren Grenzen kon­fron­tiert sind. Im
Fokus stehen Erfahrungen aus der Bodenseeregion (CH, DE, AT, LI)
und der Oberrheinregion (CH, DE, FR).

7th Crossing Boundaries Conference

Learning Across Continents: Conversations in a divided world

VETNET

Topics:

  • How do we understand the role of VET in preparing young people for work when labour markets and workplaces are in flux nationally and internationally?
  • Is this changing the nature of VET and VET curricula? Is it raising new questions on work, labour markets and education? What is core to VET that is stable across different contexts?
  • Are systems looking more similar or more different from each other?
  • What are the main factors—such as workplace organisation, changing labour markets, changing enrolment in schools and universities, and the nature of economies that are influencing different aspects of VET provision—such as curriculum, governance, partnerships, enrollment patterns—in different countries?
  • How do we connect better as researchers, and use VET research to build connection?
