A VET Toolbox & friends webinar
On 14 March 2023, we explored how investments, accompanied by skills development, can increase local job opportunities!
In this webinar hosted by VET Toolbox and DC dVET, we gathered Vocational Education and Training (VET) experts, private sector representatives, and VET stakeholders. Together, we:
- Explored how the opportunity-driven approach to VET connects skills development with investments.
- Analysed strategies to ensure quality training and the transition to employment through dual VET.
- Discussed the importance of private sector involvement in VET – from a private sector perspective.
- Spotlighted the practical example of a VET Toolbox project implemented by Expertise France in the industrial maintenance, woodwork and forestry sectors in Congo.
