Continuing training in the process of work for skilled workers in the metal and electrical industry in Baden-Württemberg

AgenturQ, the ITB and the project partner PH Heidelberg (University of Education), in cooperation with selected companies of the metal and electrical industry in Baden-Württemberg, carry out continuing training measures that are work-process-oriented and accompanied by supporting seminars. These measures are designed on the basis of an empirical needs analysis and work process analyses and are developed, implemented and evaluated according to work-pedagogical criteria. Carrying out the continuing training measures, the so-called work and learning projects (ALP), leads to the individual development of the participants, which helps to secure their employability.


The project objectives at a glance:


Quantitative improvement of in-company continuing training: increasing the participation of semi-skilled and unskilled workers, older employees and employees with a migration background in continuing training measures. Qualitative improvement of in-company continuing training: greater use of the learning potential of work processes for self-directed learning to acquire competences relevant to action and the labour market. Linking learning in the process of work with classic forms of continuing training (seminars). Sustainable dissemination of work-oriented continuing training: provision of practical instruments (toolbox) for independent application. Publication of the instruments in guidelines for in-company continuing training.
