TRAINING OF TRAINERS FOR TECHNICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL EDUCATION IN AFRICA : ACHIEVEMENTS, CONSTRAINTS AND PERSPECTIVES

4-7 December 2019

CALL FOR PAPERS

Created by Decree No. 260 / CAB / PR of August 10, 1979, the Higher Teacher Training College for Technical Education (ENSET) of the University of Douala is 40 years old in 2019. To mark this event, an international symposium will be held in December 2019 in the campus of the said establishment.

The objective of this symposium is to evaluate the progress made by the training of technical education trainers in Africa and Cameroon in particular, to identify prevailing constraints and propose ways out to produce qualitative and quantitative human resources to propel the economic emergence of the countries concerned.

It has become a truism that Africa possesses as major asset the youth of its population; this advantage unfortunately contrasts with a very high unemployment rate due among other factors to a very low rate of industrialization. At a time when most countries in sub-Saharan Africa are struggling to reach the status of emerging countries, the question of the rapid growth of their industrial fabrics is becoming more than crucial. Rapid industrialization requires enough skilled workers. This great need for manpower highlights the crucial role of the training of trainers provided by technical education teacher training colleges in the countries concerned.

This international symposium aims to evaluate the progress made in the training of trainers, the pitfalls encountered and the perspectives of this domain of education in Africa. Although focused on sub-Saharan countries that may have fairly common concerns, contributions from citizens from other countries and from other continents interested in issues concerning the training of trainers are welcome. The axes selected for this conference are the following:

  • Perceptions of and attitudes towards technical education
  • Entrepreneurship Education in Technical and Vocational Schools in Africa: What Educational Innovations to Promote Entrepreneurial Behavior in an African Context
  • Technical education, technological innovation and sustainable development
  • Problem of the adequacy between training infrastructures and the requirements of professionalization
  • Introduction of Shared Online Laboratories in Technical and Vocational Education
  • Place of languages ​​in technical and vocational education
  • Didactics of technical disciplines and the tertiary sector: what innovations can be envisaged with ICT?
  • Problems of dissemination and patenting of scientific and technological works and inventions
  • Guidance and counselling for and in technical education: issues, constraints and perspectives
  • Training-employment adequacy: the logic of actions at work
  • Promotion of gender and excellence in technical education: current situation and perspectives
  • Any other theme related to technical education not presented here will be welcome

A seminar organised by the Doctorate School of Engineering of the University of Douala will take place du the symposium. Topics to be addressed and other related modalities will be provided subsequently.
