Description
Increasing attractiveness of the VET sector and contributing to innovation in vocational education and training, has been always a priority for the European Commission, which has given a special attention to this field, by involving it in its Strategic Plan within the Programming Period of 2021-2027. The aforementioned thematic fields have also been a challenge for many VET Institutes across EU.
With our online event, we are going to present best practices of how this attractiveness could be achieved through internationalization. More specifically, EVBB along with its member AKMI S.A, will present how VET excellence, innovation, and mobilities could work together in order to lead a VET Provider to success.
The webinar is organised by:
EVBB – European Association of VET Providers – https://evbb.eu/
AKMI – AKMI Initial VET Institute https://iek-akmi.edu.gr/
