The learning venues of the vocational school and the company are the central characteristic of the dual system and serve the purpose of imparting employability skills. They are supplemented by inter-company vocational training centres, which perform important training tasks in the craft trade sector in particular.
This forum will focus on vocational education and training practice at the various learning venues and on their stakeholders, VET staff. Questions relating to the potential and prerequisites for successful cooperation between learning venues will be discussed against the background of challenges such as growing heterogeneity of trainees and the increased requirements brought about by ongoing digitalisation of learning and work processes.
Another topic to be addressed will be the use of modern forms of teaching and learning and the associated didactic and methodological requirements. For this purpose, speakers will present relevant practical examples of the deployment of digital media in vocational education and training, innovative train-the-trainer approaches and results from programmes and pilot projects on the structuring of attractive VET. A final podium discussion will explore the prerequisites for and areas of potential offered by successful cooperation between learning venues.
