 guidance services for the development of individual career plans that
must be reviewed and adjusted over time considering employers’ needs
and learners’ competences

 a lifelong learning perspective integrating initial and continuing VET
 connection with employment and social strategies at local, regional,
national, and European level

VET must be promoted at all levels of education and training, such as at higher
levels, as part of higher VET, which present quite different levels of
implementation across European countries.

When VET also follows the first principle of the European Pillar for Social Rights,
it is beneficial for all, independently from factors such as socio-economic

background, level of competences or job status. Being inclusive, VET can allow
individuals to be conscious citizens and effective professionals.

Considering the employers’ point of view, it is necessary that VET systems:
 advise employers of the importance of diversity integration at workplaces

 consider the knowledge, skills and attitudes that are necessary in the
workplace as only that way it will be relevant for learners and
professionals independently of their background

Next are presented illustrative approaches that are already taking place in the
partner countries of JOBS4ALL project and in Austria regarding strengthening
inclusive VET.
