Azerbaijan

The EU cooperates with Azerbaijan in the framework of the European Neighbourhood Policy and its eastern regional dimension, the Eastern Partnership. The European Training Foundation (ETF) supports the European Commission by providing inputs to the relevant bilateral sub-committees and follow up of the Mobility Partnership as well as the annual country updates on education, training and employment developments.  

Following up on Azerbaijan’s participation to the Torino Process, the ETF is supporting EU programmes through policy advice, bringing together different EU projects within the vocational education and training sector, and continued monitoring of their impact on national policies. It is supporting the introduction of the Skills Matching project, and the national stakeholders' cooperation and coordination of the national qualifications reform process, the creation of a 'skills dynamic' observatory and a sustainable labour market.
