Potential for Flexibility in Initial and Continuing Vocational Training

Manifold findings for the use of innovative vocational training regulations in small and medium-sized enterprises have been generated by 28 economic model experiments that were conducted nationwide under the Potential for Flexibility in Initial and Continuing Vocational Training programme which was funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research. The impact that these findings will have, the interest they are drawing and their transfer into day-to-day VET practice, policy and research in various fields of vocational education and training is currently being examined on a systematic basis by the Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training. A conference with participants from throughout Germany and European experts will be held on 22 - 23 April 2009 in Bonn-Bad Godesberg where findings and objectives that have been reached will be presented and discussed with experts from day-to-day practice, research and the political sector. Taking a look at the projects "from the outside" will open up new perspectives and points of view as well as intensify and ensure the transfer of project findings. The conference will help make the findings and changes that have been achieved available to a broader public beyond the programme and associated projects.

New young people? New vocational training? Findings from youth and education research

The BIBB/DJI conference will examine the impact current societal and economic changes are having on the personality development and career planning of youths; the transition from secondary school to vocational training; and the influence had by the quality of dual vocational training. Based on selected studies conducted by the Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training (BIBB), the German Youth Institute (DJI) and other research institutes, the conference will discuss the consequences that arise from this for the vocational training system and the resultant tasks for trade, industry, the political sector and persons responsible for education and training.

Methods and instruments for the evaluation and monitoring of VET systems

There is a high demand for methods and instruments that aid VET experts to analyse and evaluate systems, to recognise strengths and weaknesses as well as to identify possible areas for system development and to observe improvement.
The aim of the workshop is to take stock of such methods and instruments and to provide an opportunity for mutual exchange of experience and in-depth discussion.
