European Confederation of Woodworking Industry’s Post

🏆 A week full of enthusiasm, talent, pride. Which puts vocational training and its necessity for the European and global economy back at the centre. https://lnkd.in/e8JjrNsE 🏅 The WorldSkills Competition 2024, the vocational training Olympics, took place in Lyon with 1400 competitors, accompanied by supporters, coaches, teachers, tutors and hundreds of student delegations visiting from all over the world. Thousands of people, wearing national uniforms, from every corner of the world. 🥇 🥈 🥉 There were 59 competition disciplines, divided into macro-areas. For wood-furniture, students competed in the categories ‘Cabinet Making’, ‘Carpentry’, ‘Joinery’. Complex tasks, to be carried out alone or in pairs for a total of about 22 hours of competition, divided into three days. 🎯 A demanding challenge, requiring technical knowledge, emotional management, interpersonal skills and an excellent knowledge of English, in order to confront each other in the breaks with the tutors on hand. 🌉 For the rest, it is Olympic competition: a magical atmosphere, where the pride of being part of the event is felt every moment of the day. From the opening ceremony, with the parade of national delegations, to the competitions, to the award ceremonies. 📊 Numerous related conferences: the emergency of the lack of professionals and specialised technicians affects many sectors and Europe suffers from the lack of personnel more than other continents. 📍 More needs to be done: at national and regional level. Promoting participation in an event like this is a powerful tool to attract young people to professions where know-how is everything. And it gives priceless satisfaction.

We invite you to join the second Erasmus Salon, which will continue a series of events organised by the European University Foundation, the European Students Union, and the Erasmus Student Network, focusing on the recognition of learning periods abroad. 🗺️ The event will take place at the ESN/EUF Office in 📍Rue Joseph II 120 from 18:00 to 20:00 on the 2nd of May, with an informal after-work format and some food and drinks provided by the organisers. In this second Erasmus Salon, we will delve into a crucial theme in learning mobility - Recognition of Learning Periods Aboards. The findings from the XV ESNsurvey reveal that recognition of credit mobility stands as one of the most significant challenges confronting students today. 👨🎓📝The theme of this Erasmus Saloon could not come at a more key time with the launch of the Proposal for a Council Recommendation on a European quality assurance and recognition system in higher education, following the ambitious proposal of the European Degree blueprint. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dDNwgAkj
