In a rapidly evolving job market, VET students need career guidance that prepares them for both local and international opportunities. The skills required to succeed globally are not always the same as those needed in a local context. CG International bridges this gap by equipping VET teachers, school counselors, and career guidance professionals with the right tools and knowledge to support students effectively. Through tailored training and international career guidance strategies, the project helps students make informed decisions about their professional future.

CG International is a project that aims to develop an innovative approach to Career Guidance of VET students across Western Balkan countries, by focusing on developing customized training for VET teachers, VET providers, and school counselors.
