New project to strengthen networks for vocational education and training for sustainable development

The BBNE Hubs project will further consolidate existing and tried-and-tested educational interventions from successful pilot projects. In a first step, two existing regional BBNE networks with experienced actors from previous projects and new partner institutions in the regions of East Westphalia (NRW) and Thuringia will be expanded. In the second step, a new BBNE network will be established in the Schleswig-Holstein region with new partners and stakeholders. The BBNE networks in East Westphalia and Thuringia will serve as adaptation templates and good practice models.

The overarching goal of the BBNE hubs is to further and, above all, sustainably strengthen the ability of training and further education staff in companies to act. To this end, a tried-and-tested concept (from the TraNaxis project in Erfurt) is being used to qualify training and further education staff. The dual multiplier approach developed in TraNaxis will be further consolidated in practice by training further education staff and developing and establishing trainer pools for the three BBNE hubs. The qualification of company training staff is ensured by the qualified trainers and implemented by cooperating chambers and educational institutions (IHK, HWK and IHK training academies). The "Sustainability Officer for Training (IHK)" certificate course developed and trialled in TraNaxis serves as a template for this.
