EU FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT TIPS

Sector Skills Alliances are transnational projects identifying or drawing on existing and emerging skills needs in a specific
economic sector and/or translating these needs into vocational curricula to respond to those needs.
Sector Skills Alliances are intended for vocational education and training (VET), at any EQF levels from 3 to 8, including the upper-secondary level, the post-secondary non-tertiary level as well as the tertiary level (e.g. Universities of applied sciences, Polytechnic institutes, etc.). Applications that focus on the VET at tertiary level (EQF levels 6 to 8) must include a strong work-based learning component, and also include at least one other VET qualification level between EQF levels 3 to 5 (i.e. not-exclusively tertiary level).
Sector Skills Alliances are required to apply EU wide instruments and tools such as the EQF, ECVET, EQAVET, as well as the Council Recommendation on a European Framework for Quality and Effective Apprenticeships, whenever relevant.
A particular focus will be on digital skills. 

Also, the transition to a circular and greener economy needs to be underpinned by changes to qualifications and national education and training curricula to meet emerging professional needs for green skills and sustainable development.
