News from Dec 06, 2006

On December 5, at an informal education ministerial meeting in Helsinki, a new eight-year education agreement was signed between the EU and Canada. It not only renews their long-standing cooperation programme in higher education and vocational training, but also expands it by including youth measures. Over a period of eight years, new innovative joint study/training programmes will be launched, exchanges of students, teachers and other professionals will be promoted, as well as the strengthening of the collaboration between youth organisations. The agreement will also encourage a policy dialogue on priority issues in the fields of higher education and vocational training.
