The Drawing4VET project is designed to support the digital transformation of technical drawing education in vocational training. The project aims to improve the visualization skills of vocational education students by incorporating digital tools like AR and VR, reducing errors in manufacturing processes. Technical drawing is a critical skill for engineering, design, and manufacturing, and ensuring students’ proficiency in this area is essential for achieving higher quality and sustainability in production.

The project brings together partners from countries such as Turkey, Germany, Austria, and Hungary, including universities, vocational training institutions, and industry leaders. Through this collaboration, an innovative and accessible curriculum that meets industry needs is being developed. Furthermore, the educational content will be adapted using plain language to make it more accessible for disadvantaged groups, including individuals with hearing impairments.

Drawing4VET aims to reshape vocational education by integrating digitally supported teaching materials aligned with the Industry 4.0 paradigm. The materials developed will benefit not only students but also technicians, engineers, and designers in the industry. Combined with curricula updated to meet industry requirements, these digital tools will help students transition more smoothly into the workforce.

The project also seeks to raise awareness about sustainable manufacturing processes by reducing waste and rework. By the end of the project, the content developed will be available in multiple languages, ensuring it reaches a broad audience across Europe and beyond.

Key results of the Drawing4VET project include:

• A comprehensive study report on industrial needs and human-induced errors.

• AR/VR-based training packs in multiple languages, including sign language adaptation.

• Accessible course content for disadvantaged groups, particularly for the hearing-impaired.

• A significant reduction in manufacturing scrap and rework rates through improved training.

• Scientific publications and widespread dissemination of project outcomes.
