Abstract
VET in Germany is based on a dual system (learning in vocational schools and companies) within regulated training occupations. It leads to a professional degree in the respective training occupation that is recognized countrywide. Traditionally, dual VET does not have a modularized structure. The German Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training (BIBB) has recently developed competence-oriented training modules (“Ausbildungsbausteine”) for selected training occupations. These training modules have the aim of making learning outcomes more transparent and comparable, and of increasing the quality of qualification measures in prevocational training. The latter aims at easing transitions from these measures into regular (dual) VET. The traning modules have been implemented in selected regions and qualification measures within JOBSTARTER CONNECT, a pilot programme funded by the Federal Government and the European Social Fund (ESF). This article summarizes the main findings of the external evaluation of the programme.
