Networks

The network of “Ambassadors tackling early leaving from VET” coordinated by Irene Psifidou, Cedefop expert, was established in 2017 as a supporting network for Cedefop’s VET toolkit for tackling early leaving. Ambassadors are policy makers, learning providers, experts and other key stakeholders involved in tackling early leaving from VET at national, regional or local level in Europe.

CareersNet (CNet) is Cedefop’s network of independent experts in lifelong career guidance and career development, managed within the Lifelong guidance project, Department for VET and skills, within the area of VET support policies. The members of CareersNet are individuals with recognised expertise in the area of lifelong guidance and career development. They are selected based on a call for experts, subject to an evaluation process and are nominated by Cedefop’s management.

Cedefop Community of apprenticeship experts aims at strengthening and expanding the knowledge on apprenticeships in Europe.
Community experts are professionals with solid expertise in the area of apprenticeships who contribute to the activities of the Community on a voluntary basis, bringing their personal professional expertise and opinion.
