What is the resource about?
The GreenVET Framework is a comprehensive introduction to how vocational education and training can actively support the green transition. It brings together core European policy frameworks (European Green Deal, Agenda 2030, GreenComp), explains their relevance for VET, and outlines how teachers, administrators, and school leaders can embed sustainability across programmes and daily school life. Through five modules, it covers green policy context, sustainability competencies, the Whole Institution Approach, and practical guidance on using the GreenVET database.

Why is the resource useful for VET actors?
This framework is useful whether you’re a teacher or part of school leadership. For teachers, it offers ready‑to‑use explanations, examples, and tools that make it easier to bring sustainability into lessons without extra searching. For leadership, it provides a clear structure for planning whole‑school change, identifying where the institution already has strengths, and guiding the shift towards a more sustainable school culture in line with European priorities.
