Starting point
• Well-qualified drivers are a rare good
on the labour market in a fast changing
world of work.
• Legal regulations, application practice
and quality of ICT-based learning are
strongly differing.
• The current discussion on ICT-based
learning leaves out the „learning
dimension“.
• Key-players are strongly sceptical
towards technology-supported training.
Aim
• Pave the way for high-quality integration
of computer- and simulator-based
learning into professional driver training.
• Emphasise considerations on the
facilitation of learning within the
discussion on computer and simulator
application in professional driver training.
• Help to overcome scepticism and
reservations against technologysupported training through quality.
E-learning/
distance learning pilots
Pilot I a work-based learning
course with tutor facilitated elearning support on Load
Security
Pilot II a self-paced distance
learning course incl. assessment
elements on eco- and defensive
driving
Legal framework of CVET for professional drivers
 EC Directive 2003/59/EC on initial and
periodic training of professional
drivers in Europe
 Periodic training:
_35 hours of training in 5 years
_class-room-based training only
(with a few excemptions)
 Input oriented approach
 Work-based learning plays no role at
all and is NOT recognised as CVET
WBL obstacles and assets

Legal framework does not support and
partially even prevent the recognition of
WBL learning

Characteristics of professional drivers
and their regular work organisation
_make WBL a promissing learning/
training approach within CVET
_make special kinds of support
structures necessary in order to
implement WBL effectively
ICT-DRV WBL pilot: Questions

What support structures are necessary in order to
facilitate work-based learning of professional drivers on
the distance?

How can work-based learning of professional drivers be
documented in order to receive recognition within the
relevant national legal regulations on continuous
training?

What framework needs to be provided in order to
adapt the facilitation of work-based learning to the
individual needs and/or institutional requirements of
employees and employers on work-based learning?
ICT-DRV WBL pilot: Realisation
 Blended learning approach
 Accompanying basic learning
material delivered via video lectures
and additional learning material
 Praxis tasks to be implemented
within daily work praxis (WBL)
 Learner is accompanied by a tutor
 Learning is evaluated/ documented
with the tutor
Key challenges addressed
 Recognition of learners prior learning in
following the course
 Need for guidance and support alongside
work-based learning through tutorfacilitated e-learning
 Adaptation of the learning content to the
work-reality of the learner
 Transfer of learning (content) into the daily
work
 Proof of learning for recognition in the
framework of (formal) periodic training
Crucial point in the realisation of work-based
learning within professional driver qualification:
Application of the learning outcomes approach on EC Directive
2003/59 and shift from input to output/-come orientation
