The European Year of Skills in the Nordics

NVL supports the European Year of Skills. On this page, you can learn about Nordic educational initiatives that have been launched to help Nordic citizens gain the necessary skills for better job opportunities.

The European Year of Skills ended on April 30, 2024. The initiative had four main objectives: promoting investment in training and upskilling, ensuring that skills match the needs of employers, matching people’s aspirations and skill sets with opportunities on the job market, and attracting people from outside the EU with the skills needed.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ module_class=”first-on-mobile” _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https://nll2026.webfar.eu/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/european-year-of-skills-logo.png” alt=”European year of skills logo” title_text=”European year of skills logo” url=”https://european-union.europa.eu/index_en” url_new_window=”on” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-20px||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Article” module_id=”resources” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#ECEDEE” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”5d478d6d-22a6-4fe7-8649-0e322daeb5bc” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”90%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” header_font=”|700|||||||” header_2_font=”|700|||||||” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]
