About
With the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus, there was a surge in remote work in the early 2020s. The level of remote working is high and is expected to continue to grow. The shift from in-person teaching to online teaching has resulted in a lot of classes being transferred into the online sphere, with many courses now following a hybrid model with in-person and online elements (b-learning).
REMOKING is designed to bridge the digital divide and reduce related learning loss by providing VET educators with a set of tailored digital learning resources and a meaningful upskilling pathway that will boost their digital readiness and improve their teaching skills, empowering them to become active players in the digital transformation in the economy in general and in VET in particular
Project Results

This handbook will profile a collection of best practices case studies developed across Europe regarding the use of remote teaching/training in VET settings. It will mainly be addressed to educators and be a practical tool composed of at least 12 best practices (2 per country) about how to adapt remote teaching/training to the needs of learners and how to accompany them efficiently.
The REMOKING Training Toolkit
This Toolkit will be developed based around the best practices outlined in the handbook and will consist of a curriculum and a useful set of practical tools to support educators in VET settings when delivering blended and online training courses. It will include.
