The Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (Federal Ministry of Education and Research) is using the JOBSTARTER plus programme to fund projects that will strengthen small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for the future and structure vocational education and training in a more attractive way. The programme’s third round of funding is addressing the current challenges of increasing digitalisation and automation in the world of work. Initial results from the automotive supplier industry are available from the second round of funding, which was launched in July 2016 and focused on branches and clusters. These results are presented in the article.
