		Cedefop conference on work-based learning: video highlights, interviews and a picture gallery Participants in Cedefop's conference on work-based learning (12-13 June) called for the implementation of European Union (EU) policy initiatives on developing apprenticeship and other forms of work-based learning across Europe in order to address rising youth unemployment. The conference gathered more than 150 experts on vocational education and training from around the world, policy-makers from the European Commission and Member States as well as social partners' representatives.

	News from Cedefop   New publication: Roads to recovery: three skill and labour market scenarios for 2025 Cedefop's latest forecast for skill supply and demand in the European Union foresees a gradual return to job growth and an older, but better qualified, workforce. It considers three scenarios – baseline, optimistic and pessimistic – to show how different economic circumstances may influence the labour market from now until 2025. All three point to a skills mismatch in the European labour market in the medium term.     New publication: Benefits of vocational education and training in Europe for people, organisations and countries People, organisations and governments invest in vocational education and training (VET) because of its positive outcomes, such as higher wages, improved productivity and economic growth. But VET also brings non-economic benefits, such as lower absenteeism and less crime. Research on VET's benefits has focused on specific relationships, such as its impact on productivity or health. Insufficient attention has been given to how VET's benefits interact in organisations.     New flyer: skills forecasts Are you interested in skills forecasts?

To mark the occasion Cedefop has prepared a statistical overview on vocational education and training (VET) and lifelong learning in Croatia. Selected for their policy relevance and importance to achieving the Europe 2020 strategy's objectives, the indicators quantify key aspects of VET and lifelong learning and relate Croatia's performance to the EU average.     VET-Alert - Just published on Vocational Education and Training - May/June 2013 issue     Working with us   Quality assurance of certification in vocational education and training AO/ECVL/GKO-ARANI/QA&certification/008/13   Deadline:30/08/2013     Stay connected to Cedefop via Social Media     News from the Member States Items submitted by ReferNet, Cedefop's European network for VET		EU Policy   2nd International Conference on "Learning Innovations and Quality: the future of digital resources" (LINQ 2013)     Two thirds of enterprises in the EU27 provided vocational training in 2010     European social partners - Framework of actions on youth employment     Youth employment: EU support for apprenticeship and traineeship schemes     European Parliament report on educational and occupational mobility of women in the EU     CoR calls for reforming training schemes and increasing resources to the Youth Employment Initiative     Council Recommendation on the validation of non-formal and informal learning     Agenda   WorldSkills Leipzig 2013: Our youth - our future   01/07/2013 to 06/07/2013     Leipzig, Germany     Launch event: European Alliance for Apprenticeships   02/07/2013 to 02/07/2013     Leipzig, Germany     Guides to skills anticipation and matching - Cedefop-ILO-ETF expert seminar   04/07/2013 to 05/07/2013     Cedefop, Thessaloniki, Greece     2013 ATEE Annual Conference - Educating for the future   22/08/2013 to 25/08/2013     Halden, Norway     Work, wellbeing and wealth: active ageing at work   26/08/2013 to 28/08/2013     Helsinki, Finland     Quality assurance in VET and higher education for improving their permeability   17/10/2013 to 18/10/2013     Brussels, ECOSOC, Belgium     22nd Annual EfVET Conference   23/10/2013 to 26/10/2013     Athens, Greece     Cedefop conference: The shift to learning outcomes and its impact: taking stock of European policies and practices   21/11/2013 to 22/11/2013     Thessaloniki, Greece
