The November conference will address the challenge of implementing the European tools and principles and in particular discuss the role and responsibilities of social partners in this endeavour. The conference takes as its starting point that the European tools and principles address individual as well as policy level needs and that they operate in-between the education and training system and the labour market.

The conference thus addresses the issues of implementation, synergies and impact by asking the following three main questions:

•    How can the European tools and principles support the renewal and reform of VET and lifelong learning?
•    How can the European tools and principles support the individual learner/employee?  
•    Which could be the role of sectors in taking forward the implementation of EU tools and principles?
