  22. Demographic decline - competition of the dual system with higher education institutions will increase. Raising permeability between dual training and higher education - Competences acquired during VET must be recognised for further education including for university access. Raising the international competiveness of our skilled workforce through CVET - International qualifications like foreign language knowledge and intercultural skills are increasingly important. About 300.000 persons in transition system – reorganization and new concepts necessary Challenges
