Explanation of the quality indicator "Transfer orientation (+competence and outcome orientation)

A transfer orientation in learning means that students are enabled to apply their knowledge in varied contexts. Transfer of learning highly influences students’ learning motivation and includes affective, skill-based and behavioural outcomes. Especially for this target group, it is highly significant that learning during VET programmes is oriented to the labour market and students’ future lives. To prevent high failure and dropout rates among refugees, motivation is a key factor influenced by the orientation of learning towards students’ future lives. Refugees often leave training educational programmes to earn money and enter these programmes with the short-term goal of succeeding in the labour market and finding paid work. To enhance learners’ transfer orientation, the curricula and learning environments should be designed to be outcome oriented.
