On the 29th of July, as part of the testing and evaluation phase of the design of IO1 Proficiency Train-the-Trainer Programme for trainers of company mentors, the project partners from Bulgaria organised and conducted a training session with participants of the primary project target group. Six national trainers of company mentors took part in the event. They were identified by the National Agency for VET (NAVET). At this stage of the development process of the output, project experts introduced the target audience to the developed Training Programme and demonstrated its applicability potential to trainings for company mentors. The project team also gathered important feedback from the participating trainers about any aspects which require further improvement prior to the finalisation of the output. This allowed the involved project partners to reconfirm the potential of the situation-based approach to planning, delivery, monitoring and assessment of apprenticeships which according to the participants is a very reliable method to ensure quality implementation of the WBL principles.
Following the envisaged trainings in all participating countries and based on the foreseen evaluation reports, the SUSTAIN VET team will conclude the primary project output. It will be available in English and in all partner languages on the project website, so stay tuned.
