Consortium celebrates the project accomplishments

The COR-VET project came to an end with the last workshop in Paderborn. The consortium members celebrated the successful completion of the tasks and were eager to build upon the foundations prepared by COR-VET. After analysing and studying problems in career orientation in the different countries and experiencing different approaches of handling difficulties the consortium members are ready to create and implement new tools that can help teachers and students in the critical phases of career orientation.
