Education and Training Systems and Active Labour Market Policies

Danish Technological Institute works with governments and policy bodies such as the European Commission, OECD and UNESCO and social partners on the development and reform of education and training systems within broader policy goals of innovation, job creation, sustainability and equity.

Our activities span from review of education systems within the broader context of economic development and job creation to more specific assignments such as anticipation of skills within a particular sector, development of methodologies and tools for educational planning, methods and tools to support work-based learning, strategies for lifelong learning including qualification frameworks and tools in support of recognition and assessment of prior learning.
