In addition to the indicators and methods, which make innovations measurable, the authors offer profound information and examine the issue from different perspectives. (May, 8 2012)

Technical training for everybody. A neglected key element of innovation policy

Technische Bildung für Alle. Ein vernachlässigtes Schlüsselelement der Innovationspolitik.

The study takes stock of the situation of technical training in Germany in the areas of infant education, school education, vocational training, university education and adult education. It identifies interfaces between the individual fields of education and develops first approaches to understanding technical training no longer as an isolated matter in the individual links of the educational chain, but as a process of education that is networked and interlinked in many ways.
