Professional analysis, conceptual development and pilot implementation of a part-time bachelor’s programme in vocational and workplace education
ProBBP aimed to develop and pilot a bachelor's programme in Vocational and Workplace Education building on the advanced qualifications ‘Certified Vocational Educator’ and ‘Certified Initial and Continuing Training Educator’, thereby contributing to the professionalisation of continuing education personnel.
The project developed, piloted and evaluated a bachelor's programme concept. To inform its design, it first surveyed continuing education staff profiles and analysed qualitative and quantitative training needs. The programme built on the two certified educator qualifications. An equivalence comparison aligned bachelor's content with the vocational educator qualification, ensuring continuity with students' prior learning and awarding credit for it.
