Alliances for Sectoral Cooperation on Skills (implementing the ‘Blueprint')
The Alliances for Sectoral Cooperation on Skills (implementing the ‘Blueprint’) program, under the broader Erasmus+ initiative, aims to significantly enhance Europe’s innovation capacity. It achieves this by fostering strong cooperation and knowledge exchange among higher education, vocational education and training (VET) institutions, and the wider socio-economic environment, including research entities. This initiative is designed to address critical skills mismatches and boost new skill provision, particularly focusing on entrepreneurial mindsets and the twin digital and green transitions across various industrial ecosystems.
