Division Thematic actions

Special support will be given to a small number of projects on themes of particular interest at Community level, for example:

• the development of new methods of promoting transparency with an emphasis on new forms of certification or accreditation of skills and expertise learned on the job,

• actions in support of Member States' policies and initiatives to equip with appropriate skills those at a disadvantage in the labour market, particularly those young people who have no qualifications or people whose qualifications need updating,

• developing European arrangements for vocational guidance, counselling and vocational training in business-related services.
