Registration is now open for The Road Ahead: Skills for a Resilient Future

25-29 October 2021

Lockdowns and restrictions over the past year have caused unparalleled disruptions to education, threatening to affect an entire generation of future workers.

With practical skills being an important component of technical and vocational education and training processes, VET systems and institutions are confronted by considerable challenges to effectively deliver training. If not addressed, such challenges could exacerbate inequalities, and hinder important progress towards poverty reduction or the green transition.

How can we develop skill development strategies that contribute to a better and more inclusive future of work?

The WorldSkills Conference 2021 will review the impact of the pandemic on green skills development, on jobs and poverty, and on apprenticeships, as well as analyse data and trends at the global and regional level, bringing participants up to date with the learning and solutions that have emerged from this crisis.

Taking place from 25-29 October as a hybrid event both online and live from Shanghai
