Profession Shortage: Bulgaria's Vocational Education Struggles with Demand Mismatch
Vocational education encompasses approximately half of high school students and is available in every district nationwide, reaching around 80% of all municipalities
Bulgarian people have a democratic ethos, an open mind and an exploratory spirit, thinks renowned German academic Prof. Peter Fischer-Appelt.
“Bulgarians are great people, they are born for democracy, but have to re-learn it again and again”, said Fischer-Appelt in an interview with the Bulgarian national television.
Sometimes Bulgarians fail to grab historical opportunities, added he, yet they possess a very strong potential for positive change.
The German academic expressed his high opinion of Bulgarian education and science, and was especially pleased to point out his long-standing cooperation with Bulgaria
Prof. Fischer-Appelt is the founder of the German circle of friends of the St. Cyril and Methodius Foundation. He is also member of the foundation's executive board.
Prof. Peter Fisher-Appelt is doctor of theology, holder of honorary degrees, and has served as president of Hamburg University (1970-1991). In recent years he has taken an active part in a number of projects on education and education reform in Europe.
He is seen as one of the founding fathers of educational cooperation between the European East and West.
