Financing training
The objective of this project is to monitor Member States’ strategies and mechanisms for financing vocational education and training (VET) and to investigate their effectiveness and efficiency. This site provides up to date information on levels of investment in VET and on recent developments in VET funding systems and instruments. The analysis focuses on approaches to cofinancing, looking at the roles of the different stakeholders in sharing costs and responsibilities in VET. [more]
