The SECOVE Roadmap is a blueprint for the development of a skilled workforce in sustainable energy. The roadmap, developed by a consortium of partners from across Europe, outlines the key steps that need to be taken to establish and operate a network of Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVEs) in the sector of sustainable energy technologies.

CoVEs are specialized training centers that offer specialized programs, meeting the needs of the sustainable development of the energy industry, aiming to become critical actors in addressing the shortage of skilled workers in the sustainable energy sector.

The 2^nd partner’s meeting took place in Portugal, on July 5^th-6^th 2023. It was hosted by Instituto Politecnico do Porto at the premises of the Engineering School of the University, located in Porto.

The meeting had a two-day duration and was attended by representatives of all partner organisations.

Following the 1^st project meeting in November 2022, partners focused their discussions on pending project activities, mainly the plan for designing and developing the SECOVE web Portal and SECOVE Platform, as well as the establishment of the SECOVE Observatory for the inclusiveness of VET practices.

Earlier this year saw the start of the research activity to make SECOVE inclusive and encouraging women in technical professions, which involved researchers from partner organizations in Italy, Spain, Greece, Slovakia and Portugal.  

The aim of the research is to see how much VET education on sustainable energy is inclusive, especially for women, and to see how partners can increase the inclusiveness and attractiveness of VET through the operation of the CoVEs and the SECOVE tools.
