It’s a wrap – VIDEOTEACH concludes its work

Written by Savvas Charalambous on . Posted in Project News.

After two years of creativity and fruitful collaboration with our partners from eight countries, our VIDEOTEACH project is reaching its conclusion. With the aim of developing the digital competences of VET trainers and promoting video education as a tool for digital teaching, the project has yielded impressive results, including an array of innovative resources and multiple initiatives and actions.

Drawing on their diverse expertise and experience, the implementing partners focused on producing tailored, useful tools to support educators in advancing their professional development. As a result, the project has produced a competency profile and a CV template, complemented by a Self-assessment tool that educators can use to identify skill gaps and formulate development plans. Most importantly, the VIDEOTEACH project created a comprehensive online video course that guides trainers and teachers through the steps and techniques necessary to incorporate videos into their lessons, enhancing interactivity.

The project’s resources and tools are available on its website. The video course and additional video content can be accessed on the project’s platform and YouTube Channel:

As the VIDEOTEACH project draws to a close, the impact of its contributions will continue to resonate within the educational community. The resources developed are set to empower educators, fostering a more interactive and engaging learning environment. We encourage educators to explore and utilize these resources, and we look forward to witnessing the continued growth and success of digital education facilitated by the tools and knowledge shared through the VIDEOTEACH project.

The DISCOVER project proudly announces the release of the “Digital Learning Strategy Toolkit and Ecosystem Mapping,” a comprehensive guide aimed at enhancing the digital transformation of Vocational Education and Training (VET) institutions in Tunisia. This marks a significant step towards empowering Tunisian VET institutions to navigate the complexities of digital transformation effectively and elevate their capacity to support learners.

The guide documents key insights gathered from the sector, shedding light on current digital learning practices, the framework in which VET institutions in Tunisia operate as well as examples of good practices and effective approaches. Building on these findings, puts forward structured and tailored propositions, aligned with EU frameworks such as SELFIE,  that can be introduced in the Tunisian VET sector. These propositions are designed to help providers enhance their operational processes and improve the efficiency of their learning offerings. Tailored to the realities and needs of the Tunisian VET sector, the guide will serve as the ‘go-to’ resource and an invaluable tool for designing, developing and delivering digital learning strategies.

The DISCOVER project addresses the pressing need to facilitate the digitalization of Tunisia’s VET sector. CARDET and its partners, the University of Nicosia and Eurotraining, are working closely with Tunisian VET institutions to transfer their expertise, offering support and guidance to bridge the skill gap identified in the local labor market. By building up the skills and competencies of young graduates, the project aims to enhance their employability and readiness for the modern workforce.
