Vet2Sustain
Vet2Sustain project developes cooperation between VET schools and working life in European countries. Vocational Education and Training (VET) is a critical component of preparing individuals for working life. As the needs of the labour market evolve and change, education must also adapt. We will improve the quality of VET practices based on the needs of the labour market. Meanwhile we will confirm cooperation between VET providers, companies, chambers, national authorities, and other stakeholders by developing Joint VET qualifications. We create a strong future oriented European level network, that creates a vision, strategy and action plan with the goal of stronger cooperation in the future.
