The DigComp4VET project, co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union, proudly announces the publication of its two final deliverables in multilanguage version: the DigComp4VET Mainstreaming Strategy and the Policy Manifesto. These key documents, now available online, represent the culmination of DigComp4VET’s efforts to support and scale digital competence in vocational education and training (VET) institutions across Europe.

These publications follow an intensive piloting and validation phase, in which the project consortium collaborated with VET institutions and learners, policymakers and industry stakeholders across six European countries - Belgium, Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania and Spain. Following this phase, a series of bilateral and multilateral calls and meetings were held to consolidate findings, validate training resources and confirm the practical application of the DigCompEDU and DigCompORG frameworks. This process ensured that DigComp4VET’s outputs are directly aligned with the needs of VET practitioners and responsive to industry demands.

Key final deliverables:

• DigComp4VET Mainstreaming Strategy: Designed for VET practitioners, this strategy offers a practical roadmap for integrating digital competences into everyday teaching and administration. It outlines methods for continuous digital upskilling and provides tools to support educators in creating digitally inclusive learning environments
• Policy Manifesto: Targeted at policymakers, this document provides evidence-based recommendations to support the digital transformation of the VET sector. By leveraging insights from DigComp4VET, the manifesto advocates for sustainable policies that promote collaboration and alignment with labor market demands

Fostering new policy cycles and VET programmes

As DigComp4VET concludes, the project’s insights and models now serve as a foundation for future policy discussions and similar initiatives. By presenting DigComp4VET as a case study, the Mainstreaming Strategy and Policy Manifesto foster new avenues for scaling digital competences in VET, emphasizing collaborative frameworks and EU-wide initiatives. The consortium encourages policymakers and VET stakeholders to adopt and adapt these resources to drive forward digital transformation in the sector, aligning with EU targets for a competitive, digitally capable workforce.
