Eurotrainer II
The network project is coordinated by the ITB. It builds on a number of different European research and cooperation projects that have been carried out in recent years on various key topics in the field of vocational education and training professionals.
Specifically, the initiative builds on two studies commissioned by the European Commission in 2006: the study “Trainers, tutors and other persons in enterprises who integrate training and continuing training functions into their tasks” and the study “Teachers and trainers working in institutions for the labour market supported by governments and public authorities”. The network extends the approaches and cooperations of these two studies. In addition, it builds a bridge to the activities of the CEDEFOP-supported European “Training of Trainers” network (TTnet) and its national representations, as well as to the results of other CEDEFOP and Leonardo da Vinci projects on the topic. Ultimately, the network offers a platform for linking studies and a wide range of other initiatives that have been launched currently and in the recent past at European and national level on the topic of “VET professionals”.
