Academic Research Discussion Papers
The BIBB "Academic Research Discussion Papers" series makes current data, facts or valid (partial) results of studies and evaluations available to the specialist academic research community before such studies and evaluations are correlated to form concluding overall analyses. This enables BIBB to contribute towards the trend of making research results and findings publicly available to academic researchers as quickly as possible, a custom which is becoming increasingly apparent across all academic disciplines. The "Academic Research Discussion Papers" are published free of charge on the BIBB website.

Specialist Internet articles
BIBB is making more extensive use of the Internet as a publication medium by including specialist articles on current VET topics on its homepage (www.bibb.de).

GPC - Index of publications
The specialist surveys produced by the Good Practice Centre (GPC) address current issues relating to the provision of occupational support for disadvantaged young people. This enables the surveys to contribute to the fulfilment of the task with which the GPC is assigned, documenting "good practice" in the transition from school to work and supporting funding practice. Each specialist survey undertakes a detailed investigation of one of the main focuses of the GPC’s field of activity – vocational orientation, vocational preparation, training funding, transitions or second chance qualifications. The surveys present new concepts and practical examples which are then considered on the basis of academic research findings. They are aimed at skilled practitioners working for educational providers, at general schools, at vocational schools and in companies as well as targeting planning and programme managers, representatives of associations and researchers working in the field. The specialist surveys are produced at irregular intervals approximately twice per year and are published online (www.good-practice.de/expertisen.php).
