The Fourth Forum on Vocational Excellence took place in Kolding, Denmark, at the beginning of September 2025, and Centrul Pentru Promovarea Învățării Permanente (CPIP) was proud to take part in this important event.

As a project partner in the Erasmus+ Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVEs) initiative, we represented the PROMOTE Project (Promoting Integrated Professional Development for Prison Practitioners in Vocational Excellence for Offender Reintegration – 101144006 – PROMOTE – ERASMUS-EDU-2023-PEX-COVE) together with our partner BrainLog. We had the opportunity to present the project, highlight the LiberateSkills Pact that CPIP coordinates, and showcase the wider network of European-funded initiatives within the Pact.

The forum offered an excellent platform to engage participants through interactive sessions, encouraging dialogue, exchange of ideas, and collaboration. Through the Community of Practice of Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoP CoVEs), we remain committed to sharing experiences, inspiring one another, and working jointly to address common challenges in implementing CoVEs across Europe.

We are honoured to contribute to this collective effort and to connect with colleagues devoted to advancing vocational education and training excellence. Details about the event, agenda and workshops are included here https://www.copcoves.eu/forum-2025/
