EU Skills Virtual Competition
2025/2026
Euro4VET Virtual EU Skills Competition, a contest that sought to test VET students' knowledge. One of Euro4VET components was a virtual competition designed by the Polytechnic University of Leiria, that was constituted by two phases. There was an initial phase that sought to evaluate their understanding related to the project’s course that they started in Spring 2025. The second part of the competition was tied to the idea of the future of Europe.
Description
The aim of this initial phase was to select ten teams (two teams from each of the five participating VET schools).
In the second and final phase of Euro4VET Virtual EU Skills Competition, each team was asked to produce a short video (up to 10 minutes) regarding their ideas on the future of Europe.
This part of the test was evaluated according to five criteria:
(1) video quality (clarity, structure, sound, and image);
(2) demonstration of acquired knowledge involving critical thinking and reflection;
(3) plausibility and relevance of the proposals presented;
(4) creativity in approach and format;
(5) communication and expressiveness in the presentation of ideas.
