Abstract

This paper is concerned with training students of vocational education programs; specifically, tradesmen and skilled workers to better utilise
value networks and knowledge hubs, set up through government initiatives, as
an innovation platform. The study indicates that massively interdisciplinary
innovation workshops originally designed for university students can be
adapted to vocational programs demonstrating similar effects on this
demographic. Collaboration around solving real-world problems across various
trades and even academic disciplines seems to influence participants’ attitude
towards not only interdisciplinary collaboration but also entrepreneurship in
general. The study is based on two years of experimentation running six
independent workshops across ten different disciplines and trades and four
educational institutions.
