The Sydney Morning Herald reports on an Australian study shows that vocational education and training (VET) prepares workers more completely for the workforce if they are instructed in the fundamentals of their industry rather than focussing on learning specific competencies.
The study looked at the mining, solar energy and computer games industries. It found the VET system could not cope with always delivering courses that were highly specific to particular companies and continuously-changing knowledge and skills. "But VET can provide people with the capability to learn and adapt to innovation-induced change," the report says." /> The Sydney Morning Herald reports on an Australian study shows that vocational education and training (VET) prepares workers more completely for the workforce if they are instructed in the fundamentals of their industry rather than focussing on learning specific competencies.
