Funded Activity Summary

Teacher Professional Development in International Vocational Education and Training. Teachers in the Australian Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector are facing significant professional challenges under the conditions of internationalisation, global skills mobility, the 'Asian Century' and the sector's compliance culture. This project investigates the impacts of these demands upon the professional development needs and practices of VET teachers, an under-theorised and under-researched area. In so doing, the project will provide unique data for developing concepts, policies and practices that enhance VET teachers' professional development under changed circumstances. It will also produce an innovative conceptual framework for examining teacher professional development in response to internationalisation.
