LEONARDO DA VINCI

* Overview

On the 6 December 1994, the Council of Ministers of the European Union adopted the LEONARDO da Vinci programme for the implementation of a Community vocational training policy.

This programme, adopted for a period of five years (1995-1999) has a key objective of supporting the development of policies and innovative action in the Member States, by promoting projects in the context of transnational partnerships which involve different organisations with an interest in training.

The programme seeks to prepare for the 21st century by improving the quality of vocational training systems and their capacity for innovation which are key factors for mastering technological and industrial change and its impact upon work organisation and the competitiveness of enterprises. It is concerned with enabling vocational training to prepare for the professions of tomorrow, to anticipate change, to visualize the future, to prepare and experiment with new ways and new methods.
