Art. 10

(Art. 17 para. 2 and 18 para. 2 VPETA)

1. Compared to three-year and four-year VET programmes, two-year VET programmes provide learners with specific vocational qualifications that are easier to acquire. They take account of the individual capabilities of learners by offering them a particularly broad range of courses and a personalised teaching approach.
2. VET ordinances for two-year VET programmes include provisions enabling learners to subsequently enrol in the three-year or four-year VET programme.
3. Two-year VET programmes may be extended or shortened by no more than one year.
4. If a learner runs the risk of not completing a VET programme, the cantonal authorities shall, after listening to the learner and the VET school, decide whether competent individual tutoring should be provided to the learner in question.
5. Competent individual tutoring not only includes classroom instruction but all relevant areas of training that the learner requires.
