The annual meeting of the Education Ministers of 35 European countries will this year look at vocational education and training this year, with a view to improving recognition of each country’s qualifications throughout the region. EU minister of Education Ulla Tørnæs said “The steps taken in respect of higher education in Europe have helped to promote integration and increase mobility. We hope the same will apply to vocational education and training.
“Seen in the light of the growing shortage of labour in the EU Member States, it is important to increase awareness of vocational education and training opportunities in the other European countries, so that, for example, an electrician in one country can have his or her qualifications and work experience recognised in another.”
