Open invitation: Launching the new lifelong guidance framework – Thessaloniki, 12–13 May
Open invitation: Launching the new lifelong guidance framework
Cedefop is pleased to invite you to Cedefop's flagship forum taking place in 12–13 May in Thessaloniki.
The event marks the launch of Cedefop's new framework for policy and systems development for lifelong guidance, a platform for structured collaboration aligned with the aims of the Union of Skills and the European Pillar of Social Rights. It also recognises the valuable contributions of those who supported this work.
Against a backdrop of continuous social, economic and policy changes across Europe, the forum will bring together interested stakeholders from policy, research, implementation, and frontline services contexts across career learning settings to explore what the framework means in practice and its many possible applications. This includes providing inspiration for responding to common challenges and improving the consistency of the career learning experience for individuals and groups. Speakers will address embedding guidance across diverse contexts and explore possible implications, including relevance for VET.
Spaces are limited and participation is subject to confirmation by the organisers. With registration you enter on the waiting list and possibility to join online. You may contact us with questions.
Cedefop looks forward to welcoming you to Thessaloniki.
