Enterprise Education in Vocational Education

Daniele Morselli worked at the Feuerstein Centre of Jerusalem from 2007 to 2009, specializing in rehabilitation of children with severe learning disabilities. His PhD in Cognition and Education Sciences, which was awarded in 2014, was jointly awarded by Ca' Foscari University and the Melbourne University, and dealt with a comparative model between Italy and Australia for entrepreneurship education for vocational students undertaking work experience. In August 2015, Morselli will start a European Marie Curie fellowship at the University of Helsinki, Finland. The research project deals with teacher training in entrepreneurship in vocational education through the Change Laboratory workshop methodology.
