  13. What is our advantage? • Modern training programmes in 350 professions • Training is a combination of theory and practice • VET takes care of employment and labour market needs • State of the art technology in VET • Preparing young people for employment and life-long learning combined with the possibility to enter tertiary education

  14. How do we achieve this? • Close cooperation with industry and craft on all levels: • Curriculum and training regulation development • In-service training for teachers • Generation of teaching materials • Common centralized exams with our partners • Assessment and quality management systems

  15. The Dual System in VETtraining to become a Skilled Professional Basic Idea: To train young people in vocational school and in company Two educational centres!

  16. The two Educational Centres Dual System in VET 70%in-company training 30%at vocational school • State Law of Baden-Wuerttemberg: Framework Curriculum (Rahmenlehrplan) 1.5 days per week theory • Law of the Federal Republic of Germany: Training Regulations (Ausbildungsordnung) 3.5 days per week work experience

  17. Challenges for Vocational School • Very close cooperation with industry on all levels: • Federal Ministries and industrial associations • Ministries and social partners • Chambers and local school authorities • Enterprises and vocational schools • Teachers and company trainers Permanent demand for modernization of VET!

  19. Modernizing Professions Parallel to the legislative process: • Generation of teaching materials • In-service-training at State Academy for multipliers • In-service-training for teachers by multipliers on school level process of modernization and in-service training of teachers within one year

  20. Curriculum in Modernised and new Professions • Special emphasis is placed on vocational competencies • Learning units are no longer taught according to traditional vocational subjects but according to vocational competencies (Lernfelder) • Part of these competencies are taught in vocational English • Project work and problem solving techniques become part of the modern curriculum • general subjects (e.g. German, Economics) and optional subjects (e.g. for University Entrance Exam) still play a major role

  21. Benefits of the Dual System • Maximum exposure to job reality • Match between supply and demand of highly qualified skilled professionals • Low rate of youth unemployment • Guarantees a better employability • Combination of theoretical learning in school is combined with practical work experience
