PURPOSE:
The Triple E-dge project consortium is working on the following: helping students, businesses, and teachers develop more entrepreneurial and digital skills, and fostering better relationships with businesses in vocational education settings. The partnership aims to create vocational education environments where key competencies such as entrepreneurship, critical thinking, independent decision-making, problem-solving, and creativity, as well as digital skills, are ubiquitous—where students are challenged to reflect on their own performance and face digital challenges both in and outside the classroom to better prepare them for future opportunities in the workplace. This is achieved by raising awareness of a number of carefully selected skills and their relevance in the workplace, and by encouraging the acquisition of those skills in a target-group-oriented manner through digital tools (games). Formally and officially validating the acquisition of these skills that are common in the labor market. And from an educational standpoint, by certifying the validated skills through a so-called badge system.
