CERI - 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.
