Erasmus+ Capacity Building for Higher Education
Flip 3EEE
One major problem that the current education system in Palestine faces is the gap between academia and the Labour Market. Employees very often complain about the skills acquired by new graduates, which are not sufficient for the requirements of the labour market. The project envisages the solution will not only be by redesigning the content, or by changing the method of teaching or changing the assessment methods. But the change must include various and multiple aspects in Learning and Teaching Contexts.
