The event, taking place in Brussels and available to watch online, will focus on how apprenticeships can help to alleviate labour shortages in various sectors within the EU, as highlighted by the 2023 Employment and Social Developments in Europe (ESDE) Report.  

The hybrid event will look closely at effective policy measures and collaborative strategies that can be implemented through apprenticeship programmes. By providing young learners with the skills employers need and older workers with opportunities to re-skill and up-skill, these solutions can play a key role in overcoming labour shortages. 

High-level speakers and stakeholders will also come together to reflect on what has already been achieved and explore how these experiences can help to unlock the untapped potential of apprenticeships. 

Join the event to learn about: 

• advocating for quality apprenticeships;  

• facilitating collaboration and the exchange of best practices;  

• the contributions EAfA stakeholders have made to quality apprenticeships.

Following the high-level event, a Members’ Get Together event will take place in the afternoon on 18 June. Driven by EAfA members, the gathering promises valuable networking and cooperation opportunities.
