Activities
Cedefop provides comparative analyses and expertise gathered through research and networking. Its activities cover initial and continuing VET and VET aspects of lifelong learning. They integrate the interests, priorities and needs of policy-makers among its major partners the European Commission, Member States and the social partners.
Cedefop contributes to the concept, design and supports the implementation of common European tools, such as the European qualifications framework, European credit system in VET, the European quality assurance reference framework and Europass. Collectively, these tools support mobility for learning both within national systems and across borders.
The annual report of activities is submitted to the European Union institutions.

Famous quotes containing the word activities:
“That is the real pivot of all bourgeois consciousness in all countries: fear and hate of the instinctive, intuitional, procreative body in man or woman. But of course this fear and hate had to take on a righteous appearance, so it became moral, said that the instincts, intuitions and all the activities of the procreative body were evil, and promised a reward for their suppression. That is the great clue to bourgeois psychology: the reward business.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“When mundane, lowly activities are at stake, too much insight is detrimental—far-sightedness errs in immediate concerns.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“I am admonished in many ways that time is pushing me inexorably along. I am approaching the threshold of age; in 1977 I shall be 142. This is no time to be flitting about the earth. I must cease from the activities proper to youth and begin to take on the dignities and gravities and inertia proper to that season of honorable senility which is on its way.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
