Themed "Networking Education in Germany" the hybrid conference aims to provide a platform to discuss teaching concepts and methodologies in German academic institutions, including universities, universities of applied sciences, and distance learning universities. This conference also aims at fostering collaboration among German academic institutions, and the establishment of education-industry collaboration networks (e.g., towards preparing a future workforce with the adequate skills required by Industry 4.0, Industry 5.0, and Society 5.0 paradigms).
