We currently count 28 national and pan-European associations among our members, with more than 2.4 million enterprises represented and employing over 23 million people. We have always promoted apprenticeships and work-based learning approaches since our foundation. In particular, in recent years we have developed a fast-track transfer mechanism of the German Dual System to other education and training systems in Europe with the project www.europeandualsystem.eu (2015-18); designed, tested and promoted the work-based training and exchange mechanism "MobiliseSME" in 2016-17; participated to several conferences and workshops on this topic, and partnered with EVBB since 2017; contributed to many projects and proposals (2021-23 EntreVET, 2022-26 Tour-X/CoVe, 2023-25 Smart Step, WBL-XLence tbc) in recent years which include apprenticeships.
