Abstract
The client, Professor Rolf Meyer, and our supervisor, Professor Susan Göldi, are involved in leading two education programs (DAS, MAS). Therefore, they have a strong interest in understanding education systems from other countries. The client would like to use this bachelor’s thesis to understand differences and similarities between the VET system in Switzerland and those in other OECD countries. The reason why the OECD countries were chosen is that these are the most economically developed countries and have similar economic situation and infrastructure as Switzerland. Therefore, the VET systems in these countries are more comparable to the Swiss system than the systems of non-OECD countries. Since the VET system of Switzerland is perceived as successful by the client and supervisor, the client would like to know how other successful VET systems in OECD countries look like. Another reason for this bachelor’s thesis is that the University of Applied Science, where our client and our supervisor work as professors, receives requests from countries like India or China to help establish successful VET systems. In addition, our client is privately setting up a VET school in Uganda. For these reasons, the client would be interested in learning about other successful VET systems.
