Abstract:

Purpose In Australia, the vocational education and training (VET) sector accounts for approximately A$8 billion of public spending, of which around A$6.6 billion is spent on government providers that include Technical and Further Education (TAFE) institutes. The TAFE institutes in Australia are large, public VET providers, generally funded and managed by state government. Measuring the efficiency and effectiveness of TAFE institutes is of great interest to policy makers, regulators, consumers and to the institutions themselves. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach In this study the authors use data relating to student cohort demographics, institutional characteristics and educational outcome data, while employing stochastic frontier analysis, to develop two distinct efficiency measures and models. The first model examines institutional efficiency in the transformation of financial resources into teaching loads. The second model evaluates efficiency in the transformation of institutional resources into post-study employment outcomes. K-means cluster analysis is used to establish groupings of similar institutes and subsequent canonical discriminant analysis is employed to develop a typology of these clusters. Findings In both models the authors find significant inefficiencies in the Australian TAFE system. The relationship between both efficiency measures is then assessed. While there is no direct linear relationship, a distinct pattern could be detected. Finally the authors develop a typology of efficient institutions. Originality/value This study contributes to the existing research by defining efficiency in vocational education in two distinct ways and by the utilisation of the derived efficiencies in the development of a typology of efficient institutes. In doing so, this research makes an original contribution to the understanding of the drivers of efficiency in vocational education.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate how the degree apprenticeship of the vocational training institutes (VTIs) enhances the labor market and enables the trainees to detect the knowledge and skills that are acquired during the training. In addition, this study tries to detect through work-based learning whether the workplace function as a learning place and whether the trainees are satisfied by the experience during the degree apprenticeship. Design/methodology/approach In total, 129 graduates by various VTIs in the wider area of Patras (Western Greece), who completed the degree apprenticeship, participated in the survey. Findings The findings of this study highlighted the difficulties that the graduates of VTIs face when they look for a job in the economic crisis era that Greece faces. However, this study also highlighted the satisfaction that the trainees denoted about the knowledge and the vocational and social skills that they acquired during the degree apprenticeship. Additionally, the trainees are satisfied by the workplace where the degree apprenticeship took place because it became a learning environment. Practical implications This study is evidence of a need for developing the degree apprenticeship programs in Greece as a means of enhancing the transition from training to work. Originality/value This research is the first and serious recording of the trainees’ opinions regarding their degree apprenticeship, during their studies in VTIs. The presented professional and social skills could use as guidelines for the implementation of new practices and educational policies in training during the educational process. Additionally, the degree apprenticeship programs will be further linked to the educational institution and the educational community will benefit from the trainees’ experience. These new degree apprenticeship practices will be implemented in the following years in all the VTIs in Greece.

Abstract:

A quality management system for vocational educational institutes is a system aimed at ensuring the quality goals of vocational education are achieved to meet the quality standards and develop the quality work. In practice, teachers play a vital role because the key elements in a quality assurance system are strongly related to teachers especially the learning process as the spearhead of the success of vocational education. In addition, most activities undertaken in vocational education involve teacher participation. Therefore, teachers hold a great responsibility in the successful implementation of the educational quality management system. The main point to be emphasized is how a teacher has a suitable common understanding of quality. Understanding the quality drives all activities undertaken by teachers to be quality improvement oriented.

Abstract:

Nowadays, no one can deny the role played by technical and vocational education in reducing the rate of youth unemployment, low rate of poverty, high wages, and livelihood for workers, particularly younger workers. Technical and vocational education is a dual type of educational system that permit students to acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes mostly needed by industries and business. The quality of technical and vocational educations would facilitate the transformation of students from classrooms, workshops, and laboratories into real work environment. The success of technical and vocational education in achieving the its objectives would depend on the quality of management in forging a strong linkage with industries and business. The concept of working in a “black box” would not apply in technical and vocational education since industries and business are the main contributors in shaping students’ knowledge, skills, and attitudes. Kuwait, as one of the gulf states, the shortage of indigenous skilled and semi-skilled manpower in noted in essential sectors of the economy (e.g., electricity and water and the oil sector). Key figures have appreciated the significant role of technical and vocational institutions in providing essential sectors of the economy with the skilled and semi-skilled national manpower in order to reduce, to great extent, the dependence on expatriates. The Sabah Al-Salem Industrial Institute, SSII, and Shuwaikh Industrial Institute, SII, was forged between 1992-1993, by the Kuwaiti Government with the aim to equipped local manpower with the know-how and know-why that are applied in local industries and business. The research is focus on measuring the perception of a sample of heads of supervisors at the Ministry of Electricity and Water and at the oil sector towards the quality of the graduates from the Sabah Al-Salem Industrial Institute, SSII, and Shuwaikh Industrial Institute, SII. The research is based on extensive field work that encompasses a review of the related literature, interviews with a sample of heads of supervisors at the Ministry of Electricity and Water and at the oil sector to assess the quality of SSII & SII, graduates. Finally, the research will argue that unless the Sabah Al-Salem Industrial Institute, SSII, and the Shuwaikh Industrial Institute, SII, recognize and appreciate the value of building a strong linkage with local industries, its contribution in tackling the shortage of skilled and semi-skilled indigenous in essential sectors on the economy will be below the government expectations, thus continuing relaying on expatriates for years ahead.

Jobâ€™s satisfaction was used as an independent variable while as dependent variables personnel(age, sex, educational level, marital status, number of children, educational level, profession and teaching experience), interpersonal (relationships with trainees, relationships with co-educators, relationship with the administration, personal development and professionalism) and organizational factors (salary, building structure and working conditions) were used. Statistical analysis included the use of correlation and regression analysis. Results showed that from the dependent variables only age (r=.342), years of working experience in Vocational Training Institutes (r=.296), relationship with the administration (r=.699) and working conditions (r=.690) had a significant relationship with adultsâ€™ trainersâ€™ job satisfaction (p<0.01). Furthermore regression analysis showed that relationship with the manager had the biggest prediction of trainersâ€™ total job satisfaction at a percentage of 48.6% (r=.699, p<0.01), working conditions can predict trainersâ€™ job satisfaction at a percentage of 47.7% (r=.690) and age and teaching experience can predict trainersâ€™ total job satisfaction at a percentage of 20% (r=.014, p<0.05). In conclusion adultsâ€™ trainersâ€™ total job satisfaction in Vocational Training Institutes in Greece, is influenced mostly by interpersonal (relationship with the administration) and organizational factors (working conditions).Keywords: Administration, working conditions, teaching experience, vocational education, adults

Abstract:

AbstractThe study aimed to determine various constraints faced by women with physical disabilities and their vocational rehabilitation in India. It revealed that the majority of these women belong to a lower income group. Their financial constraints hinder their treatment and education, and compel them to focus on vocational courses that will provide them with employment. It was found that there is a deficit in general coordination and a huge gap between the demands of the job market and the type of vocational courses done by the women, mainly because the vocational courses offered by the special institutes are outdated. The article concludes by stressing that successful rehabilitation of these women requires overall coordination, ranging from removing various constraints in the education system, modernisation of the vocational services according to capability as well as interest, and providing suitable vocational courses.

Abstract:

This present study investigates whether some of the Brazilian government's proposals have been accomplished, and especially the impact of creating federal institutes (FIs) on a set of migration and human capital variables. The expansion of the Brazilian Federal System of Professional and Technological Education between 2000 and 2010 created more than 150 new federal institutes offering high school, vocational and higher education. A new FI affected the proportion of new immigrants in the municipality of its location. More precisely, there was an increase of 1.98% in the proportion of new immigrants in the municipalities with new FIs. This means there were increases in the ratio of people who migrated and lived less than five years in the municipalities with a new FI, strengthening the role of FIs as an attractor of immigrants. Moreover, Brazil achieved the interiorization of education due to the expansion of federal institutes.

Abstract:

Workforce in the 21st century has been marked by the acceleration of disruptive moves as the Industrial Revolution 4.0 and Society 5.0. This era requires human resources with new competencies that may be far different from current competencies. To present vocational education that is able to facilitate future human resource to learn compentencies that meet the need of future changes, vocational teachers should master new competencies comprehensively. This study aims to formulate the core vocational teacher competencies, hard skills and soft skills, which are in line with the various demands of the future. This qualitative research involved active vocational teachers and vocational education experts in several Focus Group Discussions and questionnaire completion. Research questions are focused on reflection of current teacher competencies and perceptions of teacher competencies in the future. The results lead to a conclusion that for future teachers, the core competencies are the pedagogic, content, and ICT competencies. These competences are relevant to hard skills aspects categorised as curriculum and content. In the aspect of soft skills, category living in the world is dominant. The three aspects considered very important for future vocational teachers are able to be exemplary, honest, and discipline. As a consequence, this research suggests to teacher educational institutes that produce vocational teachers to develop the teacher education curricula that integrates these key competencies in their vocational education teacher standards.

Abstract:

Abstract: It is necessary to expand social media's involvement in higher education branding, especially for vocational school. This promotional and branding is consistent with the Ministry of Education and Culture's vision. All vocational education institutes are supported and urged by the Director-General of Vocational Studies to inform the public about their advantages constantly. Undoubtedly, a social media management team is needed to manage this. It should be noted that the difficulties ahead are not becoming any simpler. Therefore, it has become more important than ever to work with the leadership of the vocational faculty's social media team. The researcher assumed that TOE and leadership shamans could be sufficient to raise public awareness of the Airlangga University Vocational Faculty's increased branding efforts.Â Purpose: The function of social media management implementation cannot be isolated from the effect of numerous parties and instruments. The TOE framework describes the management and motivation of social media adoption as a lens.Â Methodology: Case studies were used in this research. This research employs qualitative methodologies in data collecting through interviews: interviews and document searches to provide a clear image of the Vocational Faculty's social media team implementation at Universitas Airlangga.Â Findings: Besides being supported by technological, organizational, and environmental factors, the leadership's participation is worthy of discussion. The leadership did not hesitate to discuss and decide the direction of the social media team of the Vocational Faculty of Airlangga University.

Abstract:

AR and VR , which have been developed for many years, have emerged as the main educational delivery environment owing to the transition to non-face-to-face content delivery due to COVID-19. Even after COVID-19 has subsided, the use of AR and VR continue to increase owing to digital transformation in the industry and various safety problems. In particular, owing to the introduction of the metaverse platform, existing AR and VR contents have been recognized as metaverse contents, and their diverse usage has been attempted. However, limitations in vocational education and training restrict their usage. In this study, the use of AR and VR for education is examined and a training model is proposed for their application to vocational education at polytechnic institutes.

Abstract:

This study proposes an improved assessment system for vocational education, thus helping to increase technology college education efficiency. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used to examine the relative managerial efficiency for evaluating current-period and cross-period efficiency of 38 technological institutes upgraded from junior colleges in Taiwan by 1998. In addition, the managerial efficiency variations of each individual institute in between 1995 and 1998 were also determined. The study results show that the operational category is significant among primary analysis variants, i.e. private schools perform significantly better than public schools in terms of managerial efficiency. However, geographical location is not significant. This study also verifies that integration of the results of both relative managerial efficiency analysis and managerial efficiency variation analysis could be a powerful approach to help design managerial strategies that are both appropriate and effective. Some strategies to improve organization-wide operational competencies for site decision-makers are recommended, and a new way of thinking to construct a more appropriate evaluation system for the educational authorities is introduced.

Abstract:

Blended learning approaches are considered as the most viable for the delivery of training to remote areas and accessing learners at a mass level. Blended learning is a combination of different learning approaches to facilitate the learners’ needs. The National Vocational and Technical Training Commission (NAVTTC) conducted an in-service vocational teachers’ training program through blended learning approaches in Pakistan. This study aimed to find the appropriate blend of face-to-face, online, and offline learning approaches for the training of in-service teachers in Pakistan. A mixed methods research approach was adopted. A survey collected data from 781 in-service vocational teachers who participated in training programs through blended learning approaches. The ANOVA test was applied to find the difference of the training participants’ attitude toward different modes of learning. It was found that trainees had more positive attitude toward a face-to-face learning approach than online and the online learning approach than offline learning. Semi-structured interviews were also conducted with training participants, admission and placement officers, and principals. They also endorsed that face-to-face learning approaches must be given more weight than online, and the online approach should have more weight than the offline approach. This study has practical implications for technical education and vocational training (TVET) institutes in developing countries such as Pakistan to design blended learning approaches for the training of in-service vocational teachers. Future research may be conducted on the effectiveness of in-service vocational education teachers through blended learning.

This study is based on the results from a national project initiative on digitalization, supported by methodology evidence from e-learning materials at the level of teachers’ training for vocational education institutes. Looking for the new paths to online learning We have been formulating the question for almost a decade: How can we manage the transfer of knowledge and make learning more enjoyable? For the steps forwards, the first impulses for understanding the recontextualization of vocational didactics and re-defining roles and responsibilities of the actors. Our paper deals with seeking a new method for content development and its application in vocational education and training (VET). This study recommends a kind of open framework[1] is provided by the fact that the innovation, which takes open source content development as one of the approaches of reforming teacher training for VET, is connected to a technical university of long-existing traditions. In line with the peculiarities of Hungarian VET, our research group undertook to develop methodological training in terms of complex school subjects. By applying their new concept, their concrete objective was: the methodological renewal of vocational teacher training and practical training by creating and applying complex learning content units online.

Abstract:

The Covid-19 pandemic has a wide and deep impact that has changed patterns of life and behavior both in the business sector and in daily human activities. One of the changing patterns of activity is in the education industry, many educational institutions across the world have closed due to this pandemic, and it could jeopardize the academic calendar. Most educational institutes have shifted to online learning platforms to keep academic activities going. However, the question about the preparedness, designing, and effectiveness of e-learning is still not clearly understood, particularly in Indonesia where the technical constraints like suitability of devices and bandwidth availability pose a serious challenge. This issue is even more challenging in the hospitality vocational education. This paper aims to dig deeper the online learning patterns in the perspective of the students in vocational education as the impact of the pandemic. This study uses a qualitative method by conducting in-depth interviews of 15 participants with the expected result to provide information that can help various parties, such as vocational institutions, teachers, and the hotel industry.

Abstract:

This article investigates a German initiative to fund a research programme on internationaldevelopment cooperation in vocational education and training (VET). It briefly describes the strandsof the programme and critically reflects on them. It is considered important that this programme beinitiated to stimulate research on international VET development cooperation because, while thereare institutes for and programmes on VET research, research on VET is modest in volume comparedwith that of educational research on elementary or secondary education. The article also considerspriority areas for VET research that are part of the programme and expands on these, using a numberof VET research themes and topics. An important conclusion is that in research on international VETdevelopment cooperation it is important to pursue a balanced approach by taking the practical,political, administrative and scientific factors into account. These factors all play a role at the national,regional and local levels. Too much pragmatism or too isolated a scientific specialisation should beavoided. Respectful cooperation between all the stakeholders is imperative, and is especiallyimportant in projects that combine researchers with a predominantly long-term perspective andteachers and managers with a mainly short-term outlook. Finally, I express the hope that morenational governments would follow the example of Germany. Their doing so would definitely raisethe profile of international VET research, which is absolutely needed.

Using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth from 1986 to 1990, the author investigates the wage impact of various sources of training—among them, company training programs, apprenticeships, business schools, vocational and technical institutes, correspondence courses, and seminars outside the workplace. Time spent in training (of whatever kind) apparently did not affect 1990 wage levels. The incidence of two kinds of training, however—company training and seminars outside work—was positively related to wage levels as well as to wage change between 1986 and 1990; that is, workers who undertook such training enjoyed higher wages than those who did not. Time spent in vocational schools was also positively associated with wage change, though not with 1990 wage levels. The other forms of training had no apparent impact on either wage levels or wage change.

Abstract:

Knowledge and creative businesses and industries have been at the core of discussions for urban renewal strategies worldwide. Educational facilities and the businesses they attract are key elements in urban dynamics, helping to promote urban diversity and contributing to enhancing the areas where they are imbedded. In Portugal, the higher education system follows a binary structure, in which institutions are divided into Universities and Polytechnics. The latter, whose mission is creating vocational-oriented knowledge, grounded on the specific needs of the regions they are in, are key regional drivers, with the possibility of becoming developers and promotors at a regional scale, affecting urban life and urban quality. This paper aims at exploring the location of polytechnic institutions within their hosting cities, attempting to understand location patterns and similarities among different institutions, as well as envisaging the impact of such a location in the engagement with the hosting city. The research is developed at two scales: the first (a) focuses on the location of the institution in its hosting city, while the second (b) focuses on the relative deepness of the internal spaces of the institution. This research aims at providing a methodology for general characterization of regionally oriented higher education institutions in terms of their location within urban systems, as well as exploring the spatial organization of the interior of the institutions analyzed.
