With the support from the H. Hovnanian Family Foundation, ANQA launches “Building innovative teaching capacities in VET (development of research and digital skills)” project.
The project aims to to equip VET institutions’ teachers with practical research and digital skills, enabling them to independently revise and modernise academic programmes and course descriptors in line with labour market requirements and the National Qualifications Framework.
What tools and skills will teachers gain?
- Research skills: developing programmes grounded in analytical thinking, fundamental principles and data-driven decisions.
- Digital skills: enhancing teaching effectiveness through educational technology and digital tools.
- Modernisation of academic programmes: integrating research projects, interdisciplinary approaches and practical components.
Why is this project important now?
Due to recent legislative changes, VET institutions are fully responsible for the development, enhancement and modernisation of their academic programmes. However, the accreditation results highlight the need for stronger research and digital skills among teachers to effectively organise the process.
This project aims to bridge this gap, cultivating a modern teaching culture based on research, digitalisation and adaptability to the labour market requirements.
Expected outcomes:
- 80 teachers from VET institutions in the agricultural, medical and IT sectors will undergo practical training.
- Academic programmes will be revised to be more practical and modern, aligned with the requirements of the labour market.
- A culture of continuous self-evaluation and enhancement will be created.
