The project Education for Employment in North Macedonia (E4E@mk) writes and publishes texts, articles, columns, analyses and reports. The texts deal with subjects and topics related to formal and non-formal vocational education as well as to the legal regulative related to these sectors. In this section, the E4E@mk project publishes authors’ opinions and views which promote the formal and non-formal vocational education and training as well as the legal regulative. The aim of this activity is to enable a platform for public debates and discussions which will lead towards positive changes in the formal and non-formal vocational education and training.
