QUALITY ASSURANCE

Over the past years, the focus of GE was on the develop-ment of a new school curriculum in GE. This was achieved thanks to the dedication of all GE teachers. The next step will be the implementation of the GE curriculum using me-thodically appropriate tools such as the ‘OTHER’ model: Orientation, Theory, Handling, Evaluation and Reflection. I am very happy to be a part of the team and, together with the GE teachers and my CO Expert Marlen, work, for the benefit of CVT apprentices.
