Sporirea calității învățământului superior prin învățământ dual

Abstract

The article presents the results of a study on the prospects for the development of dual education in higher education institutions in the Republic of Moldova. The study is carried out within the Erasmus + COOPERA project "Integrating Dual Higher Education in Moldova and Ukraine", no. 617490-EPP-1-2020-1-MD-EPPKA2-CBHE-SP. The aim of the project is to integrate dual higher education in partner countries in general, and to improve work capacity and individual development, to increase compatibility and continuity between the requirements of the business environment and the initial training of university students and to achieve a better high economic efficiency and social integration, in particular. Starting from the experiences of implementing dual education at the level of technical vocational education in the Republic of Moldova and being motivated to take over this form of training of specialists at the level of higher education, in this article we set out to conduct research among business representatives, which represent the main beneficiaries of this form of training, regarding their attitude and openness to participate in partnership with the educational institution in the training of specialists. The dual education implemented at the level of higher education institutions will require the accomplishment of several actions, but which will contribute to the increase of the quality of the educational process.
