UNESCO’s 2015 Recommendation concerning technical and vocational education and training (TVET) reminds us that TVET in all forms and settings should be oriented to equipping all youth and adults with relevant knowledge, skills and competencies for work and life, and that this should be done through an overall lifelong learning framework. The Recommendation recognizes the crucial role of teaching staff in assuring TVET quality and relevance.
Yet implementing this Recommendation may not be so straightforward, given the unprecedented impacts that global disruptions like climate change, the Fourth Industrial Revolution, digitalization, migration and demographic change are having on people’s lives, the world of work and the world of learning.
This report captures the outcomes of the virtual conference on the future of TVET teaching and learning that took place from 7 to 14 October 2019.
