Enhancing Skill Assimilation in Higher Education: Formative Evaluation of a Pilot Program

Eli Eisenberg, Arnon Bentur, Sima Tziperfal

The Edmond de Rothschild Center for Connecting Higher Education and Employment is spearheading a pilot initiative aimed at developing and promoting an institutional framework for the integration of occupational qualifications and skills within disciplinary study courses. In collaboration with two higher education institutions, this pilot will involve updating four selected courses to incorporate pedagogies that support the acquisition of skills and qualifications.

To ensure a comprehensive evaluation of the pilot, the Shmuel Neaman Institute has been entrusted by the center to conduct both formative and final assessment studies based on the “milestones for the skills assimilation pilot.” This evaluation process will be closely coordinated with the center and relevant stakeholders from the participating institutions.
