Book excerpt: This document, which includes German, English, and French translations of all text, outlines the 1998 work program of the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (CEDEFOP). The document begins with an executive summary and a brief foreword. Presented next is an overview of how CEDEFOP will serve as an interface between research, policy, and practice by analyzing, exploiting, and disseminating the results of research conducted by the European Union's member states. The next three sections detail the activities planned to advance the three themes of CEDEFOP's 1998 work program. The following are among the objectives and activities discussed: developing knowledge and expertise (projects promoting competencies and lifelong learning, monitoring developments in the EU's member states, and serving European mobility and exchanges); stimulating debate among vocational education policymakers, researchers, and training practitioners (study visits program, Agora Thessaloniki, cooperative policy development, support for research cooperation); and keeping people informed about developments in vocational education through information services and dissemination activities (publications, library and documentation services, CEDEFOP's "electronic training village," other promotional activities). Appended are the following: a list of CEDEFOP's medium-term priorities (1997-2000), a budget outline, a list of planned publications, a list of principal meetings planned, and an organization chart.
