Symposium "Continuing Education for Practice 4.0
Institutions of continuing education are also in demand in connection with transformation processes. How must education be redesigned to make it fit for the future? The symposium "Continuing Education for Practice 4.0" will be looking for answers on September 3.
Megatrends such as digitization, increasing occupational mobility and demographic change are presenting companies with new challenges. These must be met with innovative solutions. To do this, companies need specialists and managers with the appropriate skillset. This is where continuing education institutions come in. Within the framework of higher vocational education and training, they prepare specialists for demanding technical or management tasks.
The rapid changes in the economy and the market for skilled workers are clearly outlining an education revolution that will have a massive impact on the Swiss education system in the coming years. So where do we go from here? How must education be reshaped? The symposium "Continuing Education for Practice 4.0" shows possible solutions for the new challenges. Renowned speakers from the world of education and industrial practice will discuss topics such as the need for education in the digital revolution or the revolution in teaching. With the symposium on September 3 at the Gottlieb Duttweiler Institute, the sfb University of Applied Sciences together with Swissmem Academy aim to create a new platform for dialogue between higher vocational education and training and industry in this time of change.
