As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, we want to feature the voices that make our association thrive: Yours. We are looking for brief testimonials (2–3 sentences) to be featured on our brand-new website. We want to hear your story: Why are you a member of ATEE, for how long and how has this community enriched your professional or personal life?

To make your testimonial truly stand out, we would love for you to include a high-resolution profile picture of yourself.

Interested? Please share your testimonial and photo with us by replying to this email or sending it directly to [email protected].

By sharing your experience, you help us inspire the next generation of teacher educators and showcase the strength of our global community.

EfVET has been involved in an important event organized by ENGIM Foundation: the Presentation Conference "Youth: The Future in the Present. Youth Observatory through the VET Perspective", hosted by Italian MEPs Hon. E. Donazzan (ECR) and Hon. R. Topo (S&D) at the European Parliament in Brussels, on April 7th, 2026, at 4:00 PM CET.

The event will be the occasion to present the insights of ENGIM’s National Observatory called "Youth and Future", which surveys around 4.500 students across Italy annually to explore how young people relate to work and the weight assigned to it in their future prospects, their expectations, and the vital need to "listen to youth" to truly support them. 

It also looks to foster debate among European stakeholders for effective policy development at national and international levels.

The invited speakers are:
- Irene Lovato Menin, Community R&A Researcher
- Pirkko Pyörälä, DG EMPL, Policy Officer - Youth employment
- Paolo Nardi, EfVET Executive Director
- Davide Girotto, ICYCW International President
- Marco Muzzarelli, ENGIM Director

Please save the date and confirm your attendance via this registration link, by 27th of March.
