Proje Özeti

Objectives: What do you want to achieve by implementing the project? Green VET-Education is pivotal to counter the growing ESG risk vulnerability of SMEs and their increased demand for ESGskilled personnel. PEARL aims to empower the VET Sector to fill these ESG knowledge gaps. Based on state-of-the-art digital learning resources our objective is to seamlessly integrate actionable ESG literacy into VET programs. This approach strengthens the resilience and adaptability of SMEs to a changing competitive environment and also promotes sustainable business practices.

Implementation: What activities are you going to implement? Based on a thorough needs analysis, PEARL uses a train-the-trainer methodology, actively involving experts and target groups from the beginning of the project. We're crafting a Knowledge Framework, Curriculum, and detailed Modular ESG Training Materials including comprehensive VET Packages for seamless integration in VET programs. Our unique ESG Risk Assessment APP and ESG Toolbox offer actionable tools for SMEs. Our Knowledge Hub fosters peer-to-peer exchange and enriched learning experiences.

Results: What project results and other outcomes do you expect your project to have? Studies highlight a pronounced demand for "green" VET. In alignment with Europe's Twin Transition, PEARL strengthens the VET sector to meet the rising demand for ESG-skilled workforce and to assist SMEs in navigating ESG risks. We provide VET educators with essential ESG knowledge, comprehensive teaching materials, and actionable digital tools. Our Knowledge Hub encourages stakeholder dialogue and heightens ESG awareness, contributing to the resilience and sustainability of Europe's economy.
