EUVECA – European Platform for Vocational Excellence in Health Care is an ERASMUS+ project aiming to provide future-oriented skills for innovation and development of the healthcare sector. The project will establish seven Regional Vocational Excellence Hubs (Denmark, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Slovenia, and Spain) which will develop, test and offer future-oriented skills for the healthcare sector. The objective is to ensure coordination, adaption, innovation and upward convergence within regional health education ecosystems, as well as promote European blended mobility and inter-regional learning and collaboration among healthcare professionals and students from the participating regions and beyond. The initiative contributes to the European Skills Agenda focussing on digital and green skills complementing the so-called ’21st Century skills’ such as problem-solving, teamworking, analytical and critical thinking.
The project officially kicked off on 1 June 2022 and will conclude on 31 May 2026. EUVECA brings together nineteen partners from eight European countries and is led by the Region of Southern Denmark:
