AI Is Transforming Manufacturing. Is VET Keeping Up? Artificial Intelligence is no longer a distant prospect for the manufacturing sector — it is already reshaping production floors, logistics systems, and the very nature of technical work across Europe. The question that now demands urgent attention is not whether AI will change advanced manufacturing, but whether our vocational education and training systems are evolving fast enough to prepare the workforce for this transformation.
This is the central challenge that the EXCEED project is bringing to the forefront of the European VET debate.
The EXCEED project, in cooperation with Clust-ER Innovate and the University of Oulu, is organising the next edition of the EXCEED TALK series — an open, expert-led conversation dedicated to innovation in advanced manufacturing and vocational education.
This session will focus on the latest regional research and field evidence on how Generative AI and digital tools are being integrated — or struggling to be integrated — into VET practices across Europe.
The webinar will bring together regional research findings, real-world data and practitioner insights to offer a comprehensive and grounded picture of where the sector stands today, and where it is heading.
