Yuverta International
To say that the world is changing rapidly is an understatement. For the green sector in particular, the implications for the professional field, innovation and education are significant and expected to continue to grow. The changes in the green world have implications for companies operating in it and thus for the education that supports professions. The transition challenges and the European agenda reinforce the need for adjustments in education.
Borders are disappearing, cultures are integrating, society is becoming more sustainable and the complexity of social inclusion, the increasing influence of technology, digitalisation and the flexible labour market are changing the world.
These developments make Yuverta want to develop its students and staff into global citizens and contribute to the development of the international community.
Yuverta is the largest provider of green-blue vocational education and training in Europe, has an active international network and is seen as a leading player. Based on this ambition, Yuverta attaches great importance to integrating international activities into all its forms of education.
