My name is Silvia Weiß and I live and work in Vienna, Austria. I came into this project as a staff member of the Institute for Research on Qualifications and Training of the Austrian Economy (ibw- Institut für Bildungsforschung der Wirtschaft). My main tasks at this institute are science and development concerning vocational education and training.
I have already worked in European Union – projects, like e-LOPA, which was implementing an e-learning platform, e-portfolios for students in courses which prepare adults of their final examination (”Berufsreifeprüfung” – an Austrian specific education). Beside I also worked a long time as teacher of migrants or disabled persons.
Hi Silvia,
it’s really great that you joined the network.
Loved the picture and to know a bit more about you.
I also love biking. Unfortunately, here is Manchester is not really easy to do so, although in the outskirts of the city there are beautiful landscapes!
