Digitalisierung und Qualifizierung: ein (un)bestimmtes Verhältnis

Maren Baumhauer and Rita Meyer

WSI-Mitteilungen, 2023, vol. 76, issue 5, 383-391

Abstract: Digital transformation processes go hand in hand with a continuous change in skilled work across all sectors. In view of the dynamics of the developments, the qualification requirements of the future cannot be precisely determined. In this article, the authors discuss problems, challenges and solutions associated with this situation. From a vocational and work-pedagogical perspective, the example of the German chemical industry focuses on the operational strategies for dealing with the digital transformation. On the one hand, the article shows that formal qualification is losing importance in companies compared to competence development (non-formal and informal) in shared practices and also in social networks. On the other hand, the subjects’ comprehensive professional competence and their willingness to incorporate this into the digitised work processes are gaining in relevance. Against this background, there is a need for individual, flexible and company-specific learning opportunities in order to prepare employees both for the increasing complexity of work processes and for dealing with uncertainty in digital change.
