Successful practices informed discussions together with the recently published ETF Toolkit, an aid for qualifications and skills development.  

Today the City of Practice, the main focus of the conference, connects policy and practice. Good practice success stories and useful tools are presented in stands along the conference centre promenade so that participants can engage with presenters and visualize practices. Eleven stands divided into four districts and different themes will cover information and guidance, the changing role of teachers, blended learning and vocational training and lifelong learning.

A full and varied agenda is enabling discussions on how to enhance the benefits for people derived from policies and practices on skills and qualifications.
