The proposed project deals with the development of the potential of the labor market within the field of transport and logistics (further in the text “T&L”) in the bordering areas of Russia and Latvia. Due to the common history project areas face similar problems, such as an increasing tendency of young people leaving the region, especially its rural areas. Currently there are no higher vocational education programmes which would offer the qualifications suitable to meet the requirements of the servicing and maintenance of modern commercial freight vehicles available in the project territory. Accordingly, there is a shortage of appropriately trained T&L workforce.
