As part of our mission to support enhanced European cooperation in VET policy development, we have made a substantial contribution to the conceptual development, design and implementation of the European tools:
the European Qualifications Framework (EQF)
the European Credit System for VET (ECVET)
Europass, the common principles and guidelines for validating non-formal and informal learning
the European Quality Assurance Reference Framework (EQARF/EQAVET)
coordination mechanisms for lifelong guidance, teachers and trainers in VET.
These tools and principles promote the transparency of education and training systems and support mobility of learners and citizens.

'Europe 2020: a European strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth‘'Europe 2020: a European strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth‘( European Council June 2010)
The Europe 2020 Strategy is the strategy to go out of the crisis and prepare EU economy for the next decade
Three priority areas:
smart growth (fostering knowledge, innovation, education and digital society) sustainable growth (making our production more resource efficient while boosting our competitiveness) inclusive growth (raising participation in the labour market, the acquisition of skills and the fight against poverty)

Building on Education and training 2020 and to support the Europe 2020 strategy, the European Commission's communication, 'A new impetus for European cooperation in VET to support the Europe 2020 strategy' looks to spur on reforms begun under the Lisbon strategy.
It emphasises the need to implement common European instruments and principles, encourage more adults to take up continuing training and to value better the skills and competences people acquire at work or in their lives.
Europe 2020 sets targets for education and training. Limiting the number of early education and training leavers to less than 10% (more inclusive VET). At least 40% of Europe’s 30 to 34 year-olds should attain tertiary or an equivalent level of knowledge, skills and competence (Youth on the move).
Europe 2020 sets a target for research. Improve conditions for research and development and raising combined public and private investment to 3% of GDP (Innovation Union).
Europe 2020 sets targets for employment/social inclusion. Promote social inclusion by reducing poverty, by lifting at least 20 million people out of the risk of poverty and exclusion (European platform against poverty). Raise to 75% the employment rate for women/men aged 20 to 64, including greater participation of young people, older workers, low-skilled workers and better integration of legal migrants (An agenda for new skills and jobs).

What does this imply?What does this imply?
Comprehensive qualification frameworks
Improved skills anticipation and better use of results in VET;common language between learning outcomes & job requirements
Applying European instruments consistently and coherently; developing a skills passport based on Europass; wider use of validation and guidance
Bringing partners together – wider partnerships: shared responsibilities and funding learn from models used during the crisis
Better links, coherence and synergy between education & training, employment, social and economic policies
Fostering transparency, excellence, quality and relevance of IVET and CVET through quality assurance, quality of teachers and trainers/ VET professionals and labour market relevance.

According to the forecasting of future skills needs up to 2020 carried out by Cedefop in February 2010, there will be:
15,6 millions new jobs in the EU for tertiary graduates 3,7 million new jobs for secondary level graduates and 12 million jobs less for those with no or low qualifications.
Low levels of educational attainment and insufficient skills are major causes of poor labour market performance by young people and a threat to older workers and those marginalised in society who risk losing, or cannot find a job.

More focus on broadening and reinforcing adults’ skills:
More and varied VET offers for people in different employment statuses
also to low skilled, older workers, migrants (support measures, e.g. learning reps)
Quick response to short-term labour market needs(e.g. greening skills for traditional jobs)
More opportunities to stretch skills at work for all
Learning conducive workplace (work organization, challenging tasks)
Flexible routes to skills and competences:
Access, progression and qualifications through several routes: less linear approach to learning
Flexible learning environments: various modes of delivery, times and methodsadjusted to learner needs (individualized learning paths)
