Transformation of the network of vocational training institutions

Starting from the 2022 academic year, a restructured network of vocational training institutions, in which the Ministry of Education, Science and Sports implements the rights and obligations of the owner (shareholder), will begin operating.

The purpose of this transformation is to make rational use of resources to create an effectively functioning, accessible network of vocational training institutions that implement vocational training programmes that meet the needs of the labour market, and that at the same time create favourable conditions for individuals to acquire qualifications; to create opportunities for persons studying in accordance with the professional training programme to obtain basic or secondary education, as needed, and to receive pedagogical, psychological, special pedagogical, social pedagogical and other educational. This will be done by combining the vocational training programmes of the vocational training institutions operating in the relevant region with the needs of the companies operating in the region, by eliminating excess assets, creating prerequisites for high-quality vocational training, efficient use of finances, optimal investment in vocational training infrastructure and human resources.
