The evaluation of the suspension of the AEVO [Ordinance on Trainer Aptitude], which led to its reinstatement in 2009, may be viewed as an example of successful policy consultation. Just over a decade after the BIBB investigation, this article looks back at the evaluation of the suspension of the AEVO and its implications. The aims of this retrospective consideration are to shed greater light on the role played by research in the dialogue between the relevant VET stakeholder groups and to present the conclusions that can be drawn from this process in terms of shaping current debate on the need to modernise training for trainers.
