The Nordyrk conference is an annual conference of the Nordic research network on vocational education and training. The conference venue alternates every year between the Nordic countries, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland.

The purpose of the conference is to present and discuss current research and developmental projects related to vocational education and training, as well as to make contacts, exchange ideas, and find opportunities for future collaborations.  

The theme of the conference, Evolving VET: Navigating traditions and transformations, highlights inescapable tensions embedded in evolving vocational education and training (VET). Contributions related to different aspects of the theme as well as the overall aims of the Nordyrk network are welcomed.  

The Nordyrk network is committed to enhancing the connection between research and practice and serving different target groups – including teachers and others working in this diverse educational sector.
