Owing to the fact that the Polish Centre is still developing and the new Coordinator filled the post several months ago, the activities planned for 2015-2016 will mostly be of organizational-administrative character, i.e.:

• Expanding the Centre’s activities through building a contact network and acquiring new partners.
• Creating a website containing information on the Centre’s activities and UNESCO UNEVOC in general.
• Promoting UNESCO UNEVOC’s work on regional, national and international levels.
• Finding funding sources for realising Centre’s activities, through applying for contests/programmes/national and international projects and finding sponsors.
• Undertaking strategic partnership collaboration among all the parties involved (vocational schools, colleges and universities, employers, labour department and other labour organizations), which will develop and implement specializations which are in demand in the region.
• Analysing the current needs of the regional labour market, in particular sectors, based on the data collected from the labour market institutions’ analyses, the data concerning vocational schools’ graduates and the information from the employers
• Identifying the needs of the regional labour market as far as jobs and qualifications are concerned, which the vocational education ought to be based on.
