VET to VET
Capacity Building in Western Balkans (V2V)

V2V is a European pilot project, led by Apro Formazione and funded by the European Union. The project aims to improve innovation, modernization and internationalization of Vocational Education and Training (VET) schools in the Western Balkans.

The partnership consists of ten VET schools, five within the European Union and five between Montenegro, Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, for a total of 2,700 employees and 41,000 students involved.

The logic of the project is based on constant twinning, coaching and support between the countries participating in the European program and the partners from the Western Balkans. With a bottom-up approach, each of the five European vocational training institutes will work alongside an institution from the Western Balkans in order to accompany it in a process of development of technical, organizational, educational and managerial skills. The international networks EfVET and Xarxa will also support this important partnership.
