The IT Continuing Training System and Its International Dimension This volume examines the IT continuing training system, introduced in Germany in 2002, Hans Borch, Hans Weißmann, Peter Wordelmann (Eds.) and uses comparisons with the French, Danish and Dutch systems as a vehicle for placing it within a European context. A presentation is provided of the various activities of EU institutions, specialist associations and organisations dealing with IT continuing training at a European level. This results in the identification of pertinent points relating to current The IT Continuing Training System vocational policy debate centring on “enhanced competence orientation”, “certification of informal learning” and “institutionalisation of lifelong learning”. Will the future bring competition between vocational education and training and higher education or will and its International Dimension there be a greater level of permeability? What is the value of national qualifications within Europe, and which approaches will foster horizontal and vertical mobility and thus support sustained employment opportunities? These are just some of the issues addressed by the authors, who also highlight areas where further research is required. The IT Continuing Training System and its International Dimension W.

One of the aims of the evaluation is for it to relate to the innovative educational policy elements within the system, such as the procedure for personal certification, the new didac- tic concept or permeability. In addition to this, there were explicit attendant international objectives in the development of the IT continuing training system, including the following: • the Operative and Strategic Professional qualifications should correspond to the internationally recognised qualifications of “Bachelor” and “Masters”; • the accreditation/certification procedure itself is international, the certificate being awarded pursuant to the international norm DIN EN ISO/IEC 17024 on successful completion of the examination; • educational achievements are recognised within the system itself (from Spe- cialist to Professional), the aim being for them to be internationally accredi- table (credits); • the system itself is in competition with the standard international manufac- turer certificates. Against this background, the BIBB project group has taken the decision to analy- se the main focuses of the international dimension of the IT continuing training system. This collection provides documentation of the various studies commissio- ned, an introductory commentary on the system also being included. Responsibi- lity for the individual articles remains with their respective authors.

The IT continuing training system has thus “gone to market”. The IT continuing training system contains a whole series of innovative elements, ranging from the didactic concept of workplace related learning to certifying procedures, and extending to include the international dimension of the qualifications. The BIBB is monitoring the process of implementation of this system by means of an evaluation project. The aim of the following remarks is to provide an overview of the development, current status and international dimension of the system. IT_1.teil_engl_RZ 09.12.2006 12:30 Uhr Seite 8 8 THE IT CONTINUING TRAINING SYSTEM AND ITS INTERNATIONAL DIMENSION 1. The requirement for skilled IT workers Information technology (IT) has developed into a key technology over the course of recent decades. Without information and communication technology, opera- ting processes across all areas of trade and industry and public administration would be unthinkable. IT enables • new production concepts using flat hierarchies, process optimisation and ac- celeration of operating procedures; • customer specific solutions, even in volume production; • regional and global division of labour and added value networks. Employment potential estimates for the year 20001 were based on around 12 mil- lion users and approximately 800,000 IT skilled workers, the latter being employ- ed both in the ICT sector itself as well as in applications companies. This enables the communications sector to provide more jobs than individual traditional sectors of industry such as the automobile branch, which employs around 600,000 people. All this goes to make it even more astonishing that no attention was paid to the issue of regulated initial and advanced vocational education and training for the IT labour market until the middle of the nineteen-nineties. Up to this point, as many as 80% of skilled IT workers had been lateral entrants to the sector without relevant prior learning. At the level of skilled worker, only the training occupations of Data Processing Management Assistant and Mathematical Technical Assistant had been available, these running alongside the original electrical occupation of Communications Elec- tronics Technician, which was allocated to the telecommunications area. Anyone wishing to undergo continuing training in the IT sector was confronted by a bewildering jungle of provision. More than 300 advanced qualifications were available on the market, ranging from Chat Room Manager to e-commerce Expert. The Chambers of Industry and Commerce and Chambers of Crafts and Trades alone recognised and examined 45 qualifications. Both those completing such qua- lifications and the companies themselves were faced with the problem that iden- tical occupational designations could conceal a myriad of different profiles and examination

  • Improving School Leadership
    Improving School Leadership VOLUME 2: CASE STUDIES ON SYSTEM LEADERSHIP The job of school leaders has changed radically as countries transform their education systems to prepare young people for today’s rapid technological change, economic globalisation and increased migration. One new role they are being asked to play is to work beyond their school borders so that they can contribute not only to the success of their own school but to the system as a whole – so that every school is a good school. This book explores what specialists are saying about system leadership for school Improving School improvement. Case studies examine innovative approaches to sharing leadership across schools in Belgium (Flanders), Finland and the United Kingdom (England) and leadership Leadership development programmes for system improvement in Australia and Austria.
