Challenges and potentialities for Vocational Education and Training - Voices from research.
This conference & research workshop intends to be a forum where the voice of research could be heard concerning controversial issues/questions such as: # What are the new challenges and potentialities arising from the implementation of the European qualifications Framework (EQF) and the National Qualifications Frameworks (NQF)? # To what extend could early carrier choice hinder further professional and personal development? # What is the place of apprenticeship in this new context? # What models of curriculum design are likely to be more successful in this new context? # What indications can be found of how professional identities are shaped in order to face the new challenges? # What identities are constructed by and for VET students?

Proposals for papers, symposia and round tables are welcome. Deadline for abstract submission: 10 of February 2012; deadline for registration: 15 of March, 2012; Conference fee: approx. 3.000 SEK. As part of the conference, a social program including visits to sights in Stockholm – known as 'Venice of the North' – will be offered. The conference website will be available shortly.
