On the future of voca­tio­nal education and training in Europe — volume 1 published

The first volume of results from our three-year Cedefop project on the status and prospects of VET in Europe has just been published.

The publi­ca­ti­on, entitled “The future of voca­tio­nal education and training in Europe: The changing content and profile of VET: epi­ste­mo­lo­gi­cal chal­lenges and oppor­tu­ni­ties”, explores changes in the way knowledge, skills and com­pe­ten­ces are dif­fe­ren­tia­ted in VET curricula and how learning is organised in different learning venues: class­rooms, workshops and the workplace. The study gathered infor­ma­ti­on through Cedefop’s ReferNet network, in-depth country case studies and an online survey of more than 900 European VET providers. From 3s, Monika Auzinger, Mariya Dzhengozova, Karin Luomi-Messerer and Jörg Markowitsch con­tri­bu­ted to the report.
