The reason for the project is the multiple challenges faced by Vietnamese and Laotian university staff teaching vocational education. These include a lack of competencies and skills in modern pedagogical teaching practices, the need to acquire key principles in vocational language teaching as well as ICT methodologies, the need to be an “integrated teacher” capable of combining both theoretical education and practical training, understanding quality assurance processes and mechanisms in vocational education, to secure opportunities to develop and retain practical skills of existing university vocational teacher staff. The main result after a Start Off meeting with needs analysis, planning and QA training will be an initial EU training (after preparation) in English for Specific Purposes (terminology, soft skills, key writing) and general vocational pedagogical training with ICT inputs. Programme Countries then create a 9 module pedagogical/ICT based Core Curricula which will be developed, piloted and integrated into existing university pedagogical vocational teacher training in each university. There are two Supplementary Modules as support. National Awareness Days explaining the objectives and status of the project will take place twice in each PC and promote dissemination and sustainability. Action Group will develop a CATALYST Strategic Plan ensuring post-project dissemination and sustainability. All modules will be downloadable on an online platform designed as not only a hub for academic activity but additionally for administration. We envisage very strong impacts as the Programme Country universities were selected for their interest in this project and based on EU partner experience a project like this will initiate key change.
