The establishment of strong working ties between VET providers and employers
during the curricula design process provides many other advantages, such as:
the standardisation of courses; the certification recognised by the industry; and
cross-employer transferability.
Some additional recommendations for VET centres during the co-designing
curricula and career pathways phase are:
▪ Work with employers to review and adjust existing courses or develop
new courses that meet, beside local and regional enterprise’s needs,
national and Government standards regarding job policies
▪ Ask employers for real workplace materials, scenarios, and examples to
help contextualise the guidance provided by trainers at the training
centres
▪ Require employers to determine the certification that they value for each
career
Next are presented other illustrative approaches that are already taking place in
the eight partner countries of BRIDGES project regarding co-designing curricula
and career pathways between VET providers and employers.
