Why this handbook?The Handbook of vocational education and training: Developments in the changing world of work (‘the Handbook’) is as ambitious as it is significant. The editors have articulated the need for the Handbook as being a consequence of the ‘mushrooming of new journals, the expansion of the volume of research, and the widening of international cooperation by international Vocational Education and Training institutions’.5 The ambition of the Handbook is to provide a comprehensive overview of current thinking and scholarly writing in the field of vocational education and training (VET).

Current education must prepare students for a global, uncertain and rapidly changing world, and this is not achieved with the excessive fragmentation of knowledge that occurs in school subjects. This is more evident when we talk about territories that, due to their characteristics of socioeconomic or cultural exclusion, make the education of young people an even greater and priority challenge. In this sense, a group of higher education teachers implemented Project Based Learning with students from elementary and secondary schools enrolled in the Educational Territories Program for Priority Intervention (TEIP), trying to test more engaging work methodologies for these students. These experiences are presented in this article, discussing the importance of project work for the promotion of school activities, the context of the TEIP program and the projects developed, to finally conclude on the significance of the contents covered in learning and training of young students.

Using digital technologies has become an urgent demand in this ever-changing world. The change in teachers’ role; from traditional to digital, requires systematic procedures and training. This study explores the importance of defining the training needs, the strategies of enclosing these needs, the types of training and the process of designing the training course. It also investigates the reasons that forces this change in the teacher’s role and the competencies and skills they should be equipped with.
