VET Trends 2019

Coverbild: BWP Special Edition

This special edition singles out some of the current subjects to be discussed within the professional community and by the interested public at national, European and international level. The articles address three topics that have become highly pertinent over recent years (Digital Transformation – VET 4.0, Transitions to Work and International VET Reforms). By pointing out these topics and publishing them in English, we hope to give you an insight in trends and progress within the German system of vocational education and training (VET) and to encourage the discussion on many levels.
