Short portrait

ibw conducts research and development at the interfaces between education, business and qualifications.

At the centre of all ibw projects there are application-oriented themes with relevance for the economy as well as issues to be treated on an interdisciplinary basis.

ibw was founded in 1975 by the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber (WKO) and the Federation of Austrian Industry (IV). Apart from these two provider institutions and their sub-organisations, ibw's major project partners and clients include federal ministries, the Public Employment Service Austria (AMS), regional governments and individual companies. On an international level, the EU and OECD use ibw's services either directly or within the framework of their programmes. ibw represents Austria in the ReferNet network, which was established by the EU's Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (Cedefop).
