How can young adults during their early occupational years be encouraged and best supported? 3s conducts HORIZON 2020 research on young adult learning in Europe to provide answers. Learning also takes place at the workplace.
Policies and practices of EU Member States in tracking the careers of graduates from higher education or higher vocational education are the subject of this study funded by the European Commission.
Learning in and for a digitalised world of work is changing continuously. This study explores how Austrian VET actors can learn from international role models.
3s supported the Austrian Ministry of Education in the preparation of the national report on the implementation of the Council Recommendation on the validation of non-formal and informal learning.
The purpose of the contract coordinated by 3s is to facilitate the development of methodologies for comparison of national VET qualifications.
The aim of this project is to update the European Inventory on validation of non-formal and informal learning for 32 countries in order to support the monitoring of the implementation of the 2012 Council Recommendation.
The study focused on two instruments: the European Credit System for Vocational Education and Training (ECVET) and European Quality Assurance in Vocational Education and Training (EQAVET).
Skills audits are proposed as a procedure for identifying and documenting knowledge, skills and competences. In this study, their use in practice is analysed and suggestions for improvement are developed.
In the context of the development process for a “National Strategy for the Social Dimension at Universities”, 3s examined measures that contribute to the social dimension in higher education in Austria via a survey.
The three-year research project aimed at developing a framework for studying the relationship between further education and its support by public funding schemes and the economic development on regional level.
The overall purpose of the study was to ‘explore how youth work and non-formal learning can help to foster entrepreneurship and so complement initiatives undertaken in other sectors.
