Online Info Session: Centres of Vocational Excellence 2025

The European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA), in cooperation with the European Commission, is organising an Online Info Session on CoVE 2025 on 20 February 2025 from 10:00 to 12:00 (Brussels time).

Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVE) provide training in specific areas for initial training of young people as well as for continuing up-skilling and re-skilling of adults. Yet, the CoVEs are also intended to achieve much more: to innovate teaching and learning methods, to work closely with businesses, social partners, universities etc., to develop inclusive approaches to ensure nobody is left behind, and to foster regional and local development, among other activities.

This Erasmus action aims to create innovative and responsive VET institutions capable of rapidly adapting skills provision to the economic and social needs. It aims at creating synergy between partners from all over the world in the creation of skills ecosystems.  Moreover, this action will provide young people and adults with the skills for fulfilling careers in an innovative, inclusive and sustainable economy.

If you wish to prepare a CoVE project proposal under the Erasmus+ programme and you have questions, or if you just want to make sure that you are aware of all the news, you should not miss this event!
