2nd European Vocational Skills Week

The 2nd European Vocational Skills Week will be held from November 20-24, 2017 with activities planned across the continent. The first European Vocational Skills Week took place in December 2016 with events in Brussels and hundreds of activities in European Commission member states, European Free Trade Association, and European Union candidate countries organised at national, regional and local levels.

The 2017 event will follow the same framework with activities and events occurring before and during the main event week that showcase excellence in professional and technical education and training. During the main week, events and activities will take place in Brussels including a conference, workshops, and a closing event featuring awards. Awards will be awarded in seven categories and nominations are still being accepted (see the document below).

Professional education stakeholders (institutions, learners, organizations, parents, businesses, etc.) are invited to submit activities and events to organizers as part of the Week. You can submit your event here.
