Individual projects in VPET research
SERI funds individual projects to provide short-term answers to specific research questions on innovative and unique aspects of upper-secondary vocational education and training (VET) and tertiary professional education. These projects address VPET topics not already covered by a Leading House.
SERI is currently funding the following individual projects:
- Digitale Begleitung im Berufswahlprozess digibe (lead researcher: Dr. Christoph Nägele, FHNW)
- Augmented reality and hypervideo combined: interactive technologies for improved procedural learning in vocational education and training (lead researcher: Prof. Dr. Alberto Cattaneo, SFUVET)

Project proposals
Individual VPET research projects may be funded through two principal mechanisms:
- Calls for proposals: SERI periodically issues calls for proposals that address current VPET challenges. Researchers at higher education institutions are invited to submit project proposals in response.
- Grant applications: Interested researchers at higher education institutions may apply to SERI at any time for funding to support their VPET research. Please contact SERI for more information.
Please note:
Funding for new research projects is currently unavailable.
