INFORME FINAL: "Conclusiones, recomendaciones y experiencias de éxito"


CONTEXT/BACKGROUND

Some European countries, such as Germany or Austria, have a long tradition of VET systems that are closely linked to businesses and to the needs and competencies that the latter require. In other countries, such as Spain, Portugal or Italy, the partnerships between vocational training providers and businesses need to be improved and strengthened, especially in relation to the horizontal adjustment of competencies, since the education system is not always flexible and agile enough to adapt to the training needs of companies.

Undertaking changes in the education system and implementing a quality DVET system is a slow task that faces numerous difficulties and barriers of various kinds, for instance:


  • Cultural: while in some countries vocational training has a good reputation, in others it is reviled.
  • Legislative: regulations are often rigid and inadequately adapted to emerging needs.
  • Administrative: excessively rigid bureaucratic environments in which it is necessary to change mentalities, habits, procedures, etc.
  • Inexperience: especially because of the limited commitment of the business sector, mainly in the context of small and medium enterprises, to vocational training and the education sector’s lack of understanding of corporate culture.

INSTALAÇÖES DO CINCORK

No passado dia 22 de março visitaram as instalações do Cincork uma comitiva de 18 elementos pertencentes ao Projeto iidVET, (Erasmus+), no âmbito de uma atividade de "Peer-Learning" promovida pelo Serviço de Qualificação Profissional da Câmara de Comércio e Indústria Luso-alemã (DUAL) que decorreu no Porto de 20 a 22 de março.

PTCINCORK
Considerando os objetivos da atividade, a visita ao Cincork tornou-se relevante, enquanto Centro de Formação Protocolar do IEFP, que atua num setor de atividade tradicional, mas com um forte desenvolvimento tecnológico, desenvolvendo muitos dos seus processos formativos na vertente de dupla certificação (escolar e profissional).

O Projeto iidVET, (Erasmus+), com o acrónimo iidVET, que significa "Improving the Implementation of Work-Based (Dual) Vocational Training policies through Peer Learning, Experience and Exchange" ou resumidamente, "Improving, implementing dual VET" tem a duração de 2 anos e terminará em outubro de 2019.

Do projeto fazem parte 5 países: da Espanha, a entidade pública e coordenadora do projeto, "Junta de Castilla Y León", a Associação das "Cámaras de Castilla Y León" e a "Câmara de Comércio e Indústria Espanha-Alemanha". Da Itália a "Câmara de Comércio e Indústria Itália-Alemanha", a "IFOA" Instituto de Formação da Região Emília Romagna e a entidade pública da mesma Região "Emilia-Romagna". Da Alemanha participa o "Bildungswerk der Baden-Württembergischen Wirtschaft e. V." parceiro de empresas e associações empresariais e da Áustria a Associação de todas as Câmaras de Comércio "WKO". Os parceiros de Portugal são a DUAL e o IEFP.

O objetivo principal deste projeto é o de conhecer a realidade em países já muito familiarizados com o sistema profissional dual (Alemanha e Áustria) e a de países com estruturas e realidades semelhantes como é o caso em Castilla y León, Portugal e Itália.
