As part of the CirCLER project, the validation of the newly developed Circular Economy Transition Manager (CETM) curriculum and training methodology marks a crucial step in equipping professionals with the skills needed for the furniture industry’s circular transition. Led by the Institute of the Republic of Slovenia for Vocational Education and Training (CPI), the validation process gathered insights from key stakeholders, including educators, industry experts, and sustainability consultants.

In 2024, an important document  “Towards the Circular Economy in Ukraine: An Exploratory Strategic Foresight Study" was published in Ukraine.

This report presents the development of deliverable 4.1 of the CirCLER project which entails the development of the Circular Economy Transition Manager (CETM) Curriculum. The curriculum is developed from the results of the CirCLER deliverable 3.1, which identified the Skills, Knowledge and Competency (SKCs) gaps and needs of a CETM. 

Partners of the CirCLER project gathered in Brussels on November 12th and 13th, 2024, at EFIC’s premises to advance their efforts in creating training resources tailored to the circular economy (CE) needs of the furniture sector. This Erasmus+ initiative aims to bridge the skills gap and support workers and businesses in adapting to sustainable practices.
