Annie Bouder was born 1950 in Marseille (France). She was trained as a sociologist at the University of Hamburg (Germany) and completed her education with a post graduate degree of the College of Europe in Bruges (Belgium). She has worked 15 years in research and consultancy on the “Brussels’ scene” prior to joining Céreq (Centre d’Etudes et de Recherches sur les Qualifications) in 1992. Since that date she acts as Executive Officer for International Relations. To this end she encourages and coordinates Céreq’s activities in international matters, all of them linked to vocational education and training and qualifications. The two main aspects of these activities are joint research and investigations on the one hand and regular bilateral or multilateral relations with organisations of different European and non European countries on the other. In the last years she has been extensively involved in the European discussions generated by the Lisbon and the Copenhagen Summits in the field of vocational education and training (EQF, ECVET).
