International VET Consultant
© EHB
The interest in successful VET systems is still increasing. The Swiss model showcases efficient, functional, lean and market oriented solutions in VET. The participants visit the three learning sites and a career guidance office and experience the culture in these institutions. Additionally a visit to the Swissskills will demonstrate the quality of Swiss VET. The course covers not only the systemic aspects of VET but also addresses the soft factors like attitudes and values and gives an accentuation on situation based pedagogy as the true facilitator of efficient learning in VET.

By the end of the course the Swiss system and the spirit it represents inspire the participants to explore transfer possibilities. They have an inner representation of the cornerstones and the functioning of an effective VET system and are familiar with the situation based pedagogy of SFIVET.
