Summary/Abstract: Vocational education and training in Europe have gained momentum and practical impact, and simultaneously registered challenges and drawbacks. With the help of the participants in several `Train the trainers` courses held in two European law enforcement agencies (Frontex and EFCA), we identified a series of potential and recurrent training challenges, such as language barrier, lack of motivation, inconsistency of training, dysfunctional feedback giving and receiving and the fear of assessments. This paper describes these challenges and their implications in vocational course design and delivery, and provides contextualized suggestions and solutions, such as setting up online channels between learners and trainers, encouraging learners to take an active role in their own learning and development, or providing opportunities to practice for the assessment.
