Although informal learning
(e.g. in the workplace) is of great importance in VET in many countries, there
are relatively few empirical studies investigating informal e.g. learning on
the micro level or explicitly dealing with informal learning in the (informal)
VET sector and its connection to (informal) labor markets. The ITB (Michael
Gessler, Lisa Meyne, Susanne Peters) participated in this discourse with the
research paper and presentation "Incidental Learning in International VET
Transfer: Perspectives of German VET Providers".
