Systemic Innovation in Vocational Education and Training: Meetings and Conferences

Workshop on Systemic Innovation in Vocational Education and Training
Paris 4-5 February 2008

 

The purpose of the meeting was to:

  • discuss in detail and further refine the analytical framework of the study;
  • take stock of the selection of case studies; and
  • discuss and finalise the process of carrying out the country visits scheduled to take place in 2008.

This was a major opportunity for representatives from the systemic innovation case study countries, experts on the visiting teams and the CERI Secretariat to discuss and agree on the framework, methodology and organisational details of the case studies.
