Partnerships for lifelong learning in engineering and technology
The project examined different models of cooperation between VET and higher education stakeholders designed to enable coherent learning pathways from initial training to university level and improve permeability between educational sectors.
The project investigated and sought to realise the potential of two basic forms of lifelong learning partnership, namely
a) integrated programmes and
b) bridging programmes for qualifications in technical occupational fields.
