Celebrating 20 years - take a moment to reflect on some of our activities
Despite the tropical temperatures, productive and friendly meetings were held with our VOCA partner from Lithuania on 29-30 June 2026. During the constructive meeting, we focused on finalizing the training modules being prepared.
Creativity, digitalisation and inclusion are the three key concepts behind the new VOCA-CDI project, implemented within the Erasmus+ programme. The project was launched at the end of 2025 and brings together partners from different countries, including the Lithuanian organisation UAB Informaciniu technologiju mokymo centras, which specialises in digital education.
On 5 November 2025, the national round of the Skills+ 3.0 competition took place. In a great atmosphere, teams competed in the fields of horticulture and IT. All participants delivered excellent performances. Within a short time, they managed to prepare and plant garden beds, including paved pathways. At the computers, invitations for events were created, and graphic design was combined with common user software. The competition was held at the Secondary School for Hearing-Impaired Students in Valašské Meziříčí, with the participation of teachers from the Secondary School of Professor Zdeněk Matějček in Ostrava. Ostrava could become another city where skills competitions for participants with special educational needs may expand in the future.
We were entrusted by the Regional Facility for Further Education of Teaching Staff to organize an international study visit for 15 principals and deputy principals of primary and secondary schools from the Moravian-Silesian Region in Antwerp, Belgium.
