Join the #EUVocationalSkills week action!
Did you know #EUVocationalSkills week extends beyond Europe's borders? In 2017, 35 events and activities took place in #EU neighbourhood countries, helping to promote vocational education and training as a first choice.
We are aiming higher this year. All of the European Training Foundation’s 29 partner countries are encouraged to take part in the initiative by hosting an event or activity at a local, regional or national level.
Running from September through to December, activities can include open days, company and classroom site visits, conferences, social media campaigns and articles on topic. Collectively the European Commission initiative is highlighting how vocational education is a smart choice for people of all ages to develop skills and transform their lives.
Who can get involved?
Vocational education stakeholders: learners, parents, companies, business organisations, social partners, education and training providers, adult learning organisations, chambers and other professional organisations, researchers, career counsellors, public authorities, and society at large are all invited to take part.
How to register?
The European Commission webpage includes an interactive map, promoting events taking place across the EU and candidate countries: Albania, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey. Eligible events will appear on the interactive map and organisers will receive a useful communication toolkit to help spread the message.
Other ETF partner countries can join the campaign directly in cooperation with the ETF. For more information contact: info@etf.europa.eu.
