Following the success of Cedefop’s photo competition last year, #CedefopPhotoAward is back in 2017. Groups of vocational education and training (VET) learners in the European Union can share their VET stories for a chance to win a trip to Brussels or Thessaloniki.

This year the competition theme is built around the collective experiences that learners acquire while training in VET. #CedefopPhotoAward 2017 is open to groups of up to three VET learners, who are expected to produce an original photo story along with a short narrative that will explain the idea behind their work. Initial VET students and lifelong learners alike are welcome to take part. Individual entries will not be accepted.

First-prize winners will travel to Brussels for the closing ceremony of the European vocational skills (#EUvocationalskills) week on 24 November. Winners of the second prize will attend the opening of the Thessaloniki International Film Festival (#TIFF58) on 2 November. The works of all winners and runners-up will be showcased in special exhibitions in both cities. Cedefop and the European Commission will cover all travelling and accommodation expenses for the first and second-place winning teams and a teacher/tutor for each.

We are accepting applications via email to Cedefopphotoaward@cedefop.europa.eu until 15 July 2017 23:59 CET.
