CICLO – Boosting the Circular Economy skills of the EU services Labor Force

This innovative Erasmus+ European project started in October 2019 and will have a total duration of two years. It envisions the development of an interactive, needs-oriented online Circular Economy (CE) labor market ecosystem and skills mapping and provides a training package for employed and unemployed persons to equip them with basic skills in CE-related jobs like recycling management, reuse and remanufacturing opportunities, and servitisation (services instead of products) development.

VET organizations that provide such trainings result to one of the main target groups of the project, which among with its training accredited partners will secure the recognition of skills and qualifications of its participants based on the EQF, and the ECVET maximizing their potential for access to the labor market and for social and financial integration.
