This year’s Forum on Vocational Excellence was held on September 25 and 26 in
Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The Forum 2023 was organized by Katapult, a network of more
than 450 partners between education and business. The aim of the forum was to improve
cooperation between education, business, and society. More than 400 participants from
various organizations, such as education and training providers, governments, and businesses,
came together to share knowledge, inspire, and learn from each other in this exciting
European Year of Skills. We also had an opportunity to promote our H2Excellence project
and had a separate banner on CoVE Plaza. From the H2Excellence project, Karna Dahal,
Marja-Riita Vest, Sirpa Loukiainen-Nygård from Vaasa University of Applied Sciences
(VAMK), and Antonio Gennarelli from European Association of Institutes for Vocational
Training (EVBB) joined the event.
