In 2017 we shall announce a call for proposals under the OP Science and Education which includes a project specifically for dual education,” caretaker Education and Science Minister Nikolai Denkov said at the opening of a forum on dual education called “Next steps in the introduction of dual education – new professions and tutor training”.
