BECOME PART OF THE EUROPEAN WEEK OF PROFESSIONAL SKILLS - 2022

In May 2022, the sixth edition of the European Week of Vocational Skills will take place - the week in which events are organized at local, regional, national and EU level related to the promotion of vocational education and training and enabling presentation of good practices.

Launched in 2016, the European Commission's initiative brings together all stakeholders - teachers, organizations, trainees and teachers - to show the many benefits that VET offers to both young people and older learners. Looking at the skills that will be sought in the coming years, as well as the realities of the current labor market, VET aims to offer everyone the necessary adequate skills to reach their true potential.

This year, the Week will take place from 16 to 20 May across Europe, with a focus on the "green transition". The theme is in line with the European Commission's commitment to taking all necessary steps to make Europe carbon neutral by 2050, a large-scale initiative known as the European Green Deal, which includes providing European citizens with the skills needed for this transition.

The events organized by the European Commission will take place on 18 and 19 May 2022 - including the VET Excellence Awards.

You can take part in the program or dedicate an event organized by you to the European Week of Professional Skills.
