Dual education is a win-win

Dual education brings students and employers together in a way that benefits everyone. It’s a partnership where academic learning is combined with practical, on-the-job training.
Students gain the skills and experience they need to start their careers, making it easier to move from education into work. Employers also benefit by gaining access to skilled, job-ready workers.
Some programmes are run by employers, while others are led by educational institutions. No matter the approach, the focus is on helping students apply what they learn and build their professional confidence.
