Vocational Education – Expectations and Needs

Abstract

In this paper authors describe the cooperation between universities and enterprises to provide students the ability to acquire a more specialized knowledge and skills that are indispensable when working on a team project. Authors show on an example of a project class the course of such a cooperation and what is an impact of the enterprise on education process. So far we could hear opinions that graduates coming to work in a company had a very wide theoretical knowledge but very little experience. An example in the paper shows how enterprises can help and influence the educations process to reduce the dissonance between practical and theoretical knowledge.
