Share your passion for skills as part of the WorldSkills Experts Faculty Representative Team

Support the leadership and future direction of the WorldSkills Experts Faculty and stay connected to the global WorldSkills community.

The WorldSkills Experts Faculty (WSEF) is a group of passionate Experts who seek to stay connected to the current activities of WorldSkills International. We are seeking four past Experts who also carry this passion for WorldSkills to join the WSEF representative team.

Experts are a critical part of the WorldSkills eco-system. They represent their Member country or region, sharing their experience in a skill, trade, or technology at WorldSkills Competitions.

The WorldSkills Experts Faculty Representative Team is a small but dynamic team of people from across the globe who seek out opportunities and connect predominantly past Experts with WorldSkills activities.

Many of the Experts in our Experts Faculty community have had the opportunities to participate in projects that support skills development in Africa, contribute to the mentorship programme in Costa Rica, and develop curricula for migrant youth and refugees in Sudan.

As part of the Experts Faculty Representative Team you lead and facilitate projects that bring positive impact to communities around the world.
