European Project on Soft Skills in Vocational Education

The Second Transnational Meeting

Pixel participated in the second meeting of the European project entitled VET-GPS – Guiding tools for Professional Skills development in VET, held on 3 – 4 July 2018 in Derio (Spain). The European project entitled VET-GPS was funded by the European Commission in the framework of the Erasmus+ Programme, KA2 - Strategic Partnership for vocational education and training. The European project has been written and coordinated by Mentortec (Portugal) and involves Pixel in the transnational partnership. This European project is aimed at including the soft skills in regular VET offer and preventing early VET leaving and increasing the possibility of employment of trainees. During the second meeting, the European project partners finalized the list of soft skills to be integrated in vocational education and training. In addition, the European project partners discussed the next deliverables to be produced, with a specific focus on the Assessment Tools to be used by VET Institutions and the Online Programme for VET Tutors’ Professional Orientation.
