This innovative approach we developed and tested by 5 European countries, and we are having the potential to become mainstreamed improving education and training system as well as the efficacy of policies and practices.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Using the tourism sector as a pilot, MICROIDEA developed an EU-aligned occupational profile for waiters\/waitresses, together with a full curriculum and 24 micro-credential modules covering green, soft, technical, and digital skills.

This represents a scalable model for future workforce development and a significant step toward quality-assured, learner-centred training pathways. As such, MICROIDEA provides a strong foundation for modernising VET systems and equipping the workforce with relevant, high-quality skills in a rapidly changing economy.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The MICROIDEA project, continues to build a comprehensive European approach for skill recognition and certification in the VET sector, combining innovation, trust, and inclusivity.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On December 10th, 2025, during the EfVET\u2019s workshop of the Lifelong Learning Week in Brussels our project was presented.
