Would you like to explore education and training issues with your peers in other European countries? Are you interested in expanding your professional network? Do you wish to learn more about education and training policy and practice across Europe? Then perhaps it’s time to take part in the EU’s Study Visits Programme. The application round that concerns study visits scheduled between September 2011 and February 2012 - a total of 140 visits hosted by 27 countries – is closing at 12 noon Central European Time on 31 March 2011.
The study visits, coordinated by Cedefop on behalf of the European Commission, welcome all those responsible for the development of education and vocational training policies, including directors of education and vocational training establishments, guidance centres and validation and accreditation centres; teacher trainers; education and training inspectors; and representatives of employers associations and trade unions. 97 % of participants are very satisfied with their experience in the programme.
Three study visits (Groups 25, 126, 129) of the first round specifically address high-level policy- and decision-makers responsible for education and training policies at national, regional and local level. The visits examine such important topics as raising quality of VET in cooperation with employers and higher education and the role of social partners in developing national qualifications frameworks.
