New qualifications and competencies in TVET
English
Information is gathered from other international organizations that promote skills development and the transition from education and training to work. The Interagency Group on Technical and Vocational Education and Training (IAG-TVET) was established in 2009 to share research findings, coordinate joint research endeavours, and improve collaboration among organizations working at the international and national levels.
Training quality and relevance
The Bridging Conference on New Qualifications and Competencies in TVET of the BILT project has the overall goal of laying the foundations for the upcoming project activities through an open and participatory engagement among members of the TVET community.
This meeting revolves around the key aspects related to the identification, integration and implementation of new qualifications and competencies. It aims at discussing the relevance, applicability and prioritization of new qualifications and competencies with the global TVET community with a view on practical examples from Europe, Africa and Asia-Pacific. The discussions will be underpinned by the main outcomes of the BILT Trends Mapping Study and will explore questions such as:
- What institutional arrangements are favorable for identifying the demands for new qualifications and competencies? Which mix of competencies is relevant in the BILT themes digitalization, greening, entrepreneurship and migration?
- How can relevant qualifications and competencies be integrated into curricula and training regulations? What is the relevance of cross-cutting, occupational, sectoral and modular approaches in this context?
- How are new qualifications and competencies implemented, mainly concerning adaptation of pedagogical environments and teachers and trainers training?
While the meeting is held in English, there will be remote simultaneous interpretation to and from French.
