Empowering Youth. Modernising VET.

VET4YE is a European cooperation project designed to reduce youth unemployment and skills mismatch for disadvantaged young people aged 18–25, including migrants, refugees, Roma youth and NEETs. We do this by upgrading VET quality assurance, delivering short competency-based training in high-demand trades, and supporting flexible recognition of skills through micro-credentials and digital badges.

About Us

To improve VET quality assurance and delivery through an EQAVET-aligned framework, modern learning methods including VR, and portable skill recognition via micro-credentials and digital badges that support employability for disadvantaged youth.

A VET ecosystem where quality training, modern learning tools and fair recognition of skills open real employment pathways for disadvantaged youth.
