The vocational education and training (VET) sector has faced particular challenges during the COVID crisis. Most notably the fact that the digital learning environments that most education institutions had to rely on during closures don’t work as well for practice-oriented learning – a core component of VET instruction – as they do for academic learning.
The OECD has collected comparative statistics and policy information across a number of education systems to track developments throughout the pandemic, including the impact on the vocational education and training sector.
In this webinar, learn more about the results of this analysis and where the VET sector finds itself in these difficult times.
Speakers:
- Andreas Schleicher, OECD Director for Education and Skills
- El Iza Mohamedou, Head of the OECD Centre for Skills
- Jessica Winnall, Deputy Executive Director, National Careers Institute, Australia.
