Publications

ibw draws up reports and analyses at the interfaces between education and training, skill needs of businesses and qualifications.

ibw’s research work covers a wide gamut of topics and ranges from analyses of dual VET, school-based and tertiary education and labour market analyses onto continuing vocational education and training (CVET).

In our research library you will find well-founded data, studies and background analyses conducted by ibw at the interface between education, business and qualification. Most of our ibw studies have a national and sometimes also regional focus. On account of the increasingly strong international perspective due to the EU’s education policy and OECD’s comparisons of systems, however, there is also growing international demand for ibw’s expertise. ibw has been a partner or coordinator of a large number of EU projects for many years. In addition, ibw is a cooperation partner of the EU’s Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (Cedefop).

    Die gegenständliche Studie besteht aus zwei Teilen. Der erste Teil beschäftigt sich mit den Auswirkungen der Modularisierung auf die betriebliche und schulische Lehrlingsausbildung. Dabei wird u.a. der Frage nachgegangen, welche der derzeit bestehenden Lehrberufe (Stand: Nov. 2005) modularisiert werden können. Die Frage der Prüfungsgestaltung wird dabei ebenso thematisiert, wie der Zugang zur Berufs-reifeprüfung und deren Absolvierung für Lehrlinge im Rahmen der Ausbildung (research brief 20). Der zweite Studienteil fasst die Ergebnisse einer Befragung zusammen, bei der die im ersten Teil gewonnenen Erkenntnisse mit Experten aus dem Lehrlingsbereich diskutiert wurden (research brief 21).

     

    The current study consists of two parts. The first part deals with the effects modularisation has on the enterprise-based and school-based parts of apprenticeship training. Among others, the question will be examined as to which of the currently existing apprenticeships (as of Nov. 2005) can be modularised. Attention will also be given to the questions of how the apprenticeship examination should be organised and of how the Berufsreifeprüfung can be accessed within the framework of the training (research brief 20). The second part of the study summarises the results of a company survey in which the findings from the first part of the study were discussed with experts involved in apprenticeship training (research brief 21).
