Call for tender: Mapping the research about work-based learning
The Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training (BIBB) and UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (UNESCO-UNEVOC) are undertaking a collaboration research project which is envisaged to support the creation of a comparative knowledge base on the character and relevance of work-based learning (WBL) in different contexts.
The project pursues a shared objective of UNESCO-UNEVOC and BIBB which is to create a basis for further expanding joint support for capacity building and knowledge development within the UNEVOC Network on WBL.
As part of the initial activities of the research project which is being led by BIBB (a UNEVOC Centre), a Call for Tender has been published on the ‘Mapping the research about work-based learning from a global TVET perspective - a literature review’ to take stock of the existing researches available. The research will apply a comparative approach that is sensitive to cultural contexts on regional and national levels. This preliminary step to the overall implementation of the project will aid in the systematic review of the current state of research in the field of work-based learning in connection to TVET on a global scale.
The call for tender is open to all, including professionals and researchers from the UNEVOC Network and affiliate institutions.
