A great success for PEDMEDE and the partners of the European Digi-CVET project, its distinction as an innovative and promising practice by UNESCO!
In the framework of the BILT (Bridging Innovation and Learning in TVET) project of the UNESCO International Centre for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (UNEVOC), the Εuropean project Digi-CVET,in which PEDMEDE paticipates, was recognised as one of the innovative learning practices that promotes the digitalisation in TVET.
The BILT Expert Group on building and construction recognised Digi-CVET as an important initiative for shaping the future of skills and learning in TVET.
Digi-CVET is a direct response to the changing needs in work life, where in the near future approximately 9 out of 10 jobs will require at least simple but up to advanced digital skills and competences according the factsheet/ infographic “The Digital Skills Gap in Europe” of the European Commission.
The project aims to enhance the resilience of those working in construction by equipping them with wide-ranging digital competencies, while building a culture of continuing vocational education and training (CVET) in a lifelong learning process.
The project partners hail from Germany (Bildungszentren des Baugewerbes e.V., Kröpelin Projekt GmbH / Berlin), Italy (Scuola Costruzioni Vicenza Andrea Palladio), Belgium (Centre IFAPME), Slovenia (Chamber for Commerce and Industry) and Greece (PEDMEDE).
