Here’s where the Champions shine. At WorldSkills Leipzig 2013, the best skilled workers from all over the world competed for the world title. The WorldSkills Competitions, which are held every other year, are open to Competitors up to age 22, and are hosted by a different country each time. High-performance, excitement, power, emotion and cultural exchange opportunities are guaranteed.

The exciting Competitions make you want to learn a skill – be it a traditional trade or a new discipline, whether as a cook, a mechatronics expert, or a web designer. This gigantic event is a rendezvous for international specialists in vocational education, industry and government. Their aim is to continue improving standards in vocational education. That is the goal to which they subscribe and for which they share experiences.

The WorldSkills Competition is the flagship event of WorldSkills International, a membership organisation made up of 65 countries and regions. WorldSkills International is growing rapidly and its Members now represent over 70% of the world population.

WorldSkills Leipzig 2013 welcomed everybody to the biggest educational event of its kind!
