Cedefop

The best outcomes in terms of company performance and workplace well-being are obtained in companies where training is valued highly according to the recently published European Company Survey (ECS) 2019 by EU agencies Cedefop and Eurofound.

High investment, high involvement’ workplaces have the best outcomes for workers and employers according to a recent large-scale survey of company practices across Europe. Just 20% of EU organisations fall into this category – bundling practices that increase employee autonomy, facilitate employee voice and promote training and learning.

Cedefop's CareersNet, the network of independent experts in lifelong career guidance and career development, held its annual meeting on 8 and 9 October, in cooperation with the German Federal Employment Agency.

In an interview given to BIBB, the German Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training, published in their BWP magazine 3/2020, Cedefop Executive Director Jürgen Siebel talked about the challenges facing vocational education and training (VET) in Europe and Cedefop’s unique contribution in meeting them.

Cedefop has been monitoring the adoption of artificial intelligence and new digital technologies by EU Member States, as these are becoming part of the EU’s new reality in a post-coronavirus world.

The winning teams of the #CedefopPhotoAward 2020 competition come from Poland, Greece, Czechia and Slovakia.
