Seeking to enhance work-based-learning and improve the practical training (especially, but not exclusively in the countries with school-based VET systems) there are being established and promoted specialised practical institutions equipped with the modern technologies and designed for the development of practical skills of the VET students, job seekers, employees and other groups of learners. Although such practical training institutions are designed to improve access to high quality training and competence development and to tackle the problem of mismatch between the skills demand in the labour market and VET provision, the achieving of these targets encounters multiple challenges and obstacles, especially in the countries where such practical training institutions have been established recently. These obstacles and challenges include the lack of know-how and expertise on how to develop curricula of practical training, as well as how to better organise the training process and adjust it to the requirements of the work-based VET curricula. The goal of APPRINVET project was to provide a methodical-practical toolkit for dual apprenticeship enhancement and pilot it through implementation of apprenticeship schemes in the school based VET systems employing the expertise of companies. The provided toolkit should contribute to exploit the potential of practical training institutions to enhance and implement dual apprenticeship schemes in the school based VET systems empowering the cooperation between VET providers and companies. To attain the goal, the following outputs were developed within the project: -Guidebook for the curriculum design, organisation of work-based learning and work-based vocational didactics for dual apprenticeship carried out in the practical training institutions; - Adjusted VET curriculum as best practice examples to apply dual apprenticeship requirements in the practical training institutions; - Training programme and teaching-learning material for qualification improvement of VET teachers and trainers working in apprenticeship schemes executed in the practical training institutions.In accordance to the project objectives and foreseen results of the project it was necessary to involve organisations with different profile, expertise in the field of vocational training and adult education, knowledge and experience of work-based learning application. Thus the partnership consisted of 6 partners from 5 EU countries with necessary knowledge and expertise to achieve sustainable results: -Lietuvos inovatyvių profesinio rengimo įstaigų asociacija (Lithuania) -Karaliaus Mindaugo profesinio mokymo centras (Lithuania) -Federazione CNOS-FAP (Italy) -Fundación Laboral del Metal (Spain) -MBO RAAD (The Netherlands) -EU-Geschäftsstelle Bezirksregierung Köln (Germany)APPRINVET project achievements helped to increase capacity of VET institutions (practical training units) in terms of how to initiate and manage the dual apprenticeship schemes/ dual pathways and measures in the systemic way as well as update professional skills of VET learners in relation to the labor market needs and improve skills and knowledge of VET teachers and trainers in the field of apprenticeship schemes/dual pathways and measures application, practical training curriculum development and cooperation with private sector.
