CoP on Employment, Education, and Skills
The ESF+ Community of Practice (CoP) on Employment, Education and Skills aims to support its members by organizing mutual learning events, preparing reports, and other documents on topics related to education, employment, and skills. The main focus is on the following topics: modernization of employment services to improve the management of labour market transitions; ESF/ESF+ support for vulnerable youth; improving the resilience of education and training systems.
Through its activities, the community brings together representatives of ESF+ Managing Authorities, Implementing Organisations, Intermediate Bodies, and other stakeholders to exchange knowledge, experience, and inspiring practices in social innovation and investment.
