About
WorldSkills organises the world championships of vocational skills.
It is held every two years in different parts of the world.
WorldSkills International, formerly known as the International Vocation Training Organisation (IVTO), was founded in the 1940s.
It emerged from a desire to create new employment opportunities for young people in some of the economies that were devastated by the Second World War.
