Course title: APPRENTLINE

Short Description:

Use effectively digital tools in order to organize online apprenticeships

Description:

The digital transformation of the economy, the new forms of employment and new ways of working following the Covid19 pandemic as well as the changing needs in the labour market, has led all the main actors and stakeholders in VET to realise the need to develop digital and virtual apprenticeships. However, as it was clear in the period of the pandemic, these actors did not have the knowledge, skills, competencies and attitudes to implement them in practice.Moreover, the VET organisations, besides the adaptation of their processes and curricula in relation with virtual apprenticeships, need to have also the skills to prepare adequately the VET students for that. They also need to have the capacity to capitalise on the demand for digital, distance offerings and to ensure good quality apprenticeships also virtually.The companies on the other hand, being used to face to face apprenticeships need support in order to adapt effectively their training programs and the organisation of their training offer to the needs of virtual apprenticeship. This will make the companies more adaptable to emergency situations (such as pandemic) or less favourable working conditions (such as remote locations). This in turn will make companies more sustainable and competitive on the market and resilient to changes in the labour market that might be accelerated due to the crisis, including digitalisation.
