The second stage will consist of developing the study modules and training courses for students in WP3 and after they are completed the development work goes on by developing training courses for VET teachers and industry representatives in WP4. The partners will study the information gathered in the skills-gap-analysis in their development work and use their expertise to develop all above-described project outputs in co-operation with each other and the partner companies.
On stage 2 all VET-partners and company partners use Collaborative development- method. It means that although each organisation has chosen a certain topic for their study module or training course development work, they do not do the development work alone with just their national partners. We arrange five collaborative one-week-piloting events, approximately every 5. or 6.th months, where all study module/training course development teams (including members from VET-institutes and company partners) present the work, which is done so far in their development work and during and after each presentation, the other partners members reflect the topic according to their own experiences, make questions and give feedback of the topic to help fruitful further development of the outputs.
In this way all the partners know exactly, in which phase each partner is with its development work and can both: reflect and benchmark each other’s’ work. Project outputs can be completed at different times, and after each student-directed study module is completed, the development work of training modules for VET- teachers and Industry representative will be started. The whole WP3 and WP4 development work lasts from January 2024 to end of April 2026, meaning 28 effective months and the development teams will meet 5 times physically during this period and are in contact with each other in between via emails and have Teams-meetings whenever it is needed.
In the end of each development event, a pedagogical influence study will be made to gather information for the further development and finalising work of the project output. All information, gathered in pedagogical influence study will be distributed for each output development group to be utilized directly in the refining work of the deliverables.
