In the 9th development plan (2013-2020) of Turkey, one of the development axes in its main objectives is protecting the environment and improving the urban infrastructure. The rationale of the project is enhancing the quality and performance of VET system improving education in drinking water supply and development. It can be achieved through promoting creativity, innovation and transfer of EQF/NQF principles in education of the main target group in the sector.
