Vocational excellence, much like a masterful recipe, blends high-quality ingredients, precise methods, and creative innovation. This flavorful concept is at the core of the European Training Foundation’s (ETF) latest publication.

Excellence in vocational education and training (VET) is not just a goal—it’s a commitment to continuous improvement, innovation, and impact. To celebrate institutions leading the way, the ETF launched two prestigious certificates: "Committed to VET Excellence" and "Vocational Excellence".

Bringing together over 100 delegates from 30 nations, the conference facilitated a dynamic exchange of ideas among Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVEs), policymakers, educators, researchers, and industry leaders. Through insightful discussions and shared best practices.

16 new Centres of Vocational Excellence are starting their activities in March 2025. Over their 4 years duration, they will perform a set of ambitious and innovative activities generating a long-term impact in vocational education and training.

From 10-13 February 2024, Nova Gorica, Slovenia, became a hub of innovation and collaboration as vocational education and training (VET) professionals gathered for the first-ever VET Winter Camp—an initiative under the Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVEs).

As industries evolve at an unprecedented pace, the demand for digital and sustainable skills is greater than ever. Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVEs) are at the forefront of this transformation, equipping learners with the expertise needed to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
