The market has low level of trust in HEI as serious partner in solving technical and technological or any work-related problems but also cannot see their role in the creation of skill and knowledgeable graduates, who are fit for employment. The main aim of the project is to improve the competences of higher education graduates in Montenegro, through the development of generic model of dual education (DUALMON model) and legal framework for introduction of dual education in order to support different needs and interests of students, companies, higher education institutions (HEIs) in the country and to provide recommendations to HEIs for implementation of dual education in the entire HE system. The model will be implemented, as a pilot test, at four faculties of University of Montenegro, from different fields: Faculty of Economics, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality and Faculty of Maritime Studies.The overall aims of the project are:• Improvement of the competencies of higher education graduates in Montenegro, according to the needs of employers,• Increase motivation to study as well as to improve the employability of graduate students, • Enable students from lower income families to access higher education, and• Improvement of legal framework and accreditation standards in Montenegro in order to adapt to dual education with long-term goal to motivate introduction of dual education in other HEIs in Montenegro.
