Papers This section will disseminate through the Internet quality and valid documents for the vocational training community that are prepared and gathered together by the Centre. This new way of providing information allows us to reach an audience that is today larger and more interested in training as a vehicle of social inclusion, as a knowledge catalyst, while at the same time contributing to promote better employability conditions and social dialogue. Originally, all these documents were presented by ILO/Cinterfor as contributions during events related to vocational training.
