In a broader sense one might say, that personal qualification encompasses several other soft skills aspects.
b. Professional qualification:
Instructors must be professionally qualified o matte what country we talk about. They must have a good
command of the occupational skills that they want to teach to young people. Persons shall be deemed to
have the necessary technical qualifications if they possess the vocational skills, knowledge and
qualifications as well as the teaching skills, knowledge and qualifications required to give initial training in
the occupation and processes concerned.
4.3.Recognition and role of the company mentor / trainer
Studies on quality teaching and learning in classroom settings show that it is the teacher’s quality that
determines for the largest part (75 per cent) the quality of learning in the classroom. When transposing this
finding to workplace learning, the quality of the professionals in WBL in both the VET school and the
company play an important role in the learning taking place. Teachers and trainers not only can contribute
to the modernisation and reform processes in VET but they can also provide higher innovation and
productivity in companies while ensuring better transition from school to work.
