We use vocational training curricula to investigate how IT skills are trained within broader "skills packages" and how these relate to labour market outcomes. Skills packages are the typical combinations of IT skills (e.g., CNC) and technical or nontechnical skills (e.g., material sciences or work safety) that are jointly required in the…

Augmented Reality (AR) is a new-generation technology that shows video, picture, and animated 3 D objects over real-life scenes. Despite AR's prevalence around the world, language teacher education programs are not prompt in the integration of digital educational tools. The present study explored the factors that predict pre-service English…

Taking courses by continuing education (CE) providers is one of the main ways for adults to learning digital skills. CE is provided in either face-to-face (F2F) or online distance learning (ODL) mode. While F2F courses are natural and well-understood, ODL is flexible and less expensive. However, ODL lacks the natural teacher-student and…
