  • Linking vocational education training in logistics and transport with the labour market [Elektronski vir] : learner-centred and needs-based curriculum development
    Bajec, Patricija ; Jurkovič, Violeta
    The purpose of this paper is to examine the curricula of selected Slovene, Italian, Croatian, and French vocational education training (VET) schools in logistics and transport, compare them against ... the needs of the logistics and transport as well as other industries that employ VET graduates in logistics and transport, and present the learner-centred and needsbased training modules (TM) that were designed to bridge the gap between the needs of the employers and the current VET offer. To analyse the training offer, a SWOT analysis of 17 VET diplomas in logistics and transport were performed. In the following step, 49 interviews were conducted in pertinent logistics and other companies that employ VET graduates to determine the level of competence of VET students in transport and logistics. The findings indicate an imbalance between the training offer and employer needs. Five TMs were designed: TM1 % Maritime and Intermodal Management, TM2 % Supply Chain Management of Cold Products, TM3 % Warehouse Analysis, TM4 % Transport Organisation, and TM5 % Key Soft Skills. This paper provides new insights into the knowledge and skills that have to be developed by VET graduates from transport and logistics from the employers% point of view, and proposes a framework for contemporary curriculum design for VET in logistics and transport. The paper is based on the intellectual output reports of the Erasmus+ project, KA2 % Strategic Partnership in VET 2017- 2020, entitled Summer Logistics School (SLS).
