The concept of supported education has increasingly attracted attention. It refers to the support of young people with disabilities or impairments to help them complete a VET programme in the regular labour market (cf., for example, Schaufelberger, 2013). This concept assumes that people with impairments are also capable of completing training and carrying out gainful employment provided that appropriate activities can be found in a suitable training or working environment and the required support is available. Such a supported form of VET occasionally gives rise to major challenges for the coordination and cooperation of the host company, vocational school and other involved bodies and people. Supported education is based on the concept of supported employment (cf. Doose, 2012).
