With the project “LearningbyGoing” we want to create the basis for a network of vocational schools, companies and authorities through study visits and faculty exchange that will provide the basis for a sustainable student exchange. Through the mutual exchange of topics relevant to vocational training, this project creates many starting points for thematic exchange and school development.
 
General GOALS:
  

1. Capacity building within the involved partners to develop a sustainable network of VET providers and -organisations in Canada (British Columbia, Southern Alberta) and Switzerland (St.Gallen und Olten). This will be also reached by combining the network activities with national VET & education-events in each country. 
   
   
2. Knowledge of the general structure and organisation in VET, TVET, Colleges and school-providers, its challenges and opportunities to foster skilled people for the labour-marked. 
   
   
3. Bringing together the stakholders of VET and TVET (schools, companies, governments, others) to share and discuss ways and perspectives to grow and accelerate the quality and recognition of VET and TVET (for example in WorldSkills training, aquisitation of new learners, lowering the youth unemployment, delivering educational contents based on the needs of the companies, …) 
   
   
4. Establishing a faculty and student exchange program which enriches the education of the learners and gives new perspectives for the teachers to foster the quality of the education
