Cedefop is the European Agency to promote the development of vocational education and training (VET) in the European Union.
It is a centre of expertise to support the development of VET and evidence based policy making. It provides advice, research, analysis, information, and stimulates European cooperation and common learning. Its networks allow the centre to keep abreast of recent developments and to cooperate and share information.
It works closely with the European Commission, governments, representatives of employers and trade unions, as well as with researchers and practitioners. It provides them with up-to-date information on developments, experience and innovation in VET, and forums for policy debate.
Cedefop shares its expertise through electronic and hard-copy publications, conferences and working groups.
Cedefop was founded in 1975. Since 1996 it has been based in Thessaloniki, Greece.
