00:01Just 1 hora away from Copenhagen,

00:03a vocational education and training center

00:06is turning Danish students into craftspeople.

00:10I've always been creative and practical with my hands,

00:13and then I thought, I want to learn a trade.

00:16Then Glacier popped up, and it looked really interesting.

00:20I really like the work.

00:22It's not like other types of construction works,

00:25typically a lot of manual labor.

00:28We do have a few heavy lifts here and there,

00:32but mainly it's quite nice work.

00:35It's never too late to learn new stuff,

00:38and when you're open-minded, it's always a possibility.

00:43As Europe works to cut carbon emissions,

00:45the demand for skilled workers is greater than ever.

00:48Vocational education and training centers across the EU

00:51are leading the way, preparing students to drive the energy transition.

00:58About 180 people are enrolled at this school,

01:03learning the skills industries are often looking for,

01:06such as glazing, roofing and construction.

01:09Students split their time between the classroom and the workplace,

01:13discovering there are plenty of opportunities beyond the traditional academic path,

01:18and it's attracting people from all walks of life.

01:22I studied philosophy and history,

01:24and then I also wanted to get something more of a permanent steady job,

01:30but that's quite hard, being a philosopher or having studied philosophy.

01:35When you work as a glacier, it's a practical trait,

01:38and usually you get a more instant satisfaction working with your hands,

01:44and you can see the results more vividly.

01:47I always knew I wouldn't go the academic way.

01:51I've always been better with my hands.

01:53It's good we start pushing more for the green energy and for the environment.

01:58It's a big part of our job, and it's going to change how we work.

02:04Although vocational education often provides a more secure path to employment than traditional academics,

02:10it continues to suffer from low enrollment and visibility.

02:14The Clever Hands for the Future initiative, coordinated by this school, aims to change that.

02:20Backed by 1.95 million euros from the EU's Social Fund Plus,

02:25the three-year project uses new ways to shine a light on vocational careers.

02:31The main goal of the project is to recruit,

02:34to get a lot of young people to take a career education.

02:39The first goal of the project is,

02:41that we work together with some of our EUD-leaders here,

02:45and the schools.

02:47So they are connected to a class,

02:49and they have a long-range relationship,

02:51where they come out and show the young people,

02:53that it's great to go to work.

02:55So we try to analyze our job centers,

02:58where we have job centers on the schools,

03:01and then we try to work with them.

03:03And on the way,

03:05so they can better be able to get a job.

03:09Between 2021 and 2027,

03:11the EU is investing more than 150 billion euros in education and skills,

03:17with a strong focus on vocational education and training.

03:21To tackle skills shortages,

03:23especially in the energy and digital sectors,

03:25the European strategy supports both funding,

03:29and the harmonizing of qualifications across member states.

03:33Education is not an EU competence.

03:35It's the competence of governments, of regions.

03:37And there's a lot of important discussions among member states.

03:41Okay, but if we have, you know, European cooperation and exchanges,

03:46and a European vocational degree,

03:48how do we make sure that we are able to,

03:51and if we want to have recognition of qualifications,

03:53that we have these quality systems aligned?

03:57Most importantly, you need to build trust between educational systems.

04:01But for the average person, what is important is that it can travel

04:06with his or her diploma, degree, throughout member states,

04:10wherever the industry or the job is better suited to what they're skilled for.

04:16The EU is also working to get more vocational students involved in international programs

04:21like Erasmus+, and to close the gender gap that still affects many trades.

04:26For Robert, this kind of support sends a strong signal

04:30to those wanting to explore alternative paths in life.

04:33The message I would like to tell is to think about it,

04:38and there's more options than you think.

04:40And maybe you have overlooked a good option that could be a really good way

04:44for your future working life.

04:46Europe's future depends not just on technology and craft,

04:49but on people with the skills to make them work.

04:52Investing in vocational education and training today

04:55builds the workforce of tomorrow.
