Working together for the future of vocational education

The Institute of Vocational Education and General Pedagogy with the Vocational Education organizational unit combines teaching, research and teacher training under one roof. Our team of almost 20 employees works to further develop vocational education and training. Practical, scientifically sound and with a view to future challenges.

The focus is not only on content, but above all on the people behind it.
