GREENOVET is a project funded by Erasmus +, with a consortium consisted of four regions in Austria, Finland, Portugal and North Macedonia to promote excellence in the vocational education (VET) landscape for environmentally friendly innovation throughout Europe and thus also to enable a positive influence on a sustainable and innovative economy in the Skopje-region.
Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVEs) will be established in Styria – Austria, Leiria – Portugal, Vaasa – Finland, and Skopje Region – North Macedonia. The CoVEs will foster environmental, social and economic development in Europe, through green and sustainable innovation processes enabled by VET excellence. Additionally, they will develop capacities through trainings and study visits -more than 100 teachers will be trained to provide excellence in teaching of both vocational and key competences, more than 16 regional and 2 international projects with companies will be implemented and the VET students will improve their skills.
During and after the project implementation, continuous evaluation and monitoring of the CoVEs’ processes, services and instruments as well as their implementation will be conducted.
GREENOVET will provide a platform to interconnect the European VET schools on regional, national and transnational level among them and with key partners in the local innovation and skills ecosystems.
