Skills Training in Industry-Academia Collaboration in CTE: Best Practices and Implementation in the Engineering, Hospitality and Innovative Entrepreneurship Fields
Co-sponsoring economies: Brunei Darussalam; China; Korea; Malaysia; Peru; Philippines; Russia; Singapore; Thailand; Viet Nam
The project, Skills Training in Industry-Academia Collaboration in CTE (Career and Technical Education): Best practices and implementation in the engineering, hospitality and innovative entrepreneurship fields, is a follow-up project to the one completed in 2015, when APEC member economies were invited to come and discuss collaboration models in the fields of engineering, health care, and hospitality and tourism. By 2017, the first couple of Chinese Taipei student cohorts will have already graduated and been employed by partner companies, so delegates from APEC economies may compare the fruits of such collaborations through interaction with the industry and the students themselves. This workshop will be an opportunity for participating economies to discuss the effects of such partnerships and other models in vocational education which can be applied to CTE in each economy.
