The SDG Navigator Digital Hub and Toolbox (SNDH) integrates the Sustainability Changemakers Competences Dictionary (SCCD) and the Sustainability Navigator Learning Path (SNLP), offering an interactive and personalised exploration of the available resources. The Digital Hub supports VET educators, VET providers, and learners in facilitating more dynamic and customised consultancy-training processes on sustainability-driven entrepreneurship. It also aids learners in expanding competences and processes critical for addressing the challenges and opportunities they face to improve their entrepreneurial mindset.

The SNDH promotes awareness-raising about the green transition, environmental, and climate-change challenges. The toolbox is designed to develop competences in various sustainability-relevant sectors and to support the creation of future-oriented curricula that meet the needs of VET trainers as well as VET learners. By integrating innovative practices, the SNDH prepares learners, staff, and youth workers to become true agents of change, encouraging sustainable behaviors.

The SNDH also aims at adapting VET to labour market needs by offering a balanced mix of vocational skills and work-based learning opportunities aligned with evolving jobs, working methods, and key competences. The toolbox facilitates the adaptation of VET curricula to changing skills needs, green and digital transitions, and economic cycles, thus supporting VET providers in maintaining up-to-date training offers.

The SNDH toolbox contains interactive exercises organised by the process stages defined in the SNLP and the competences defined in the SCCD. The interactive learning resources, such as storytelling, videos, interactive infographics, action cards, flashcards, and quizzes, can be used in a stand-alone mode and customized to individual preferences. These engaging and real-world-oriented activities support further content exploration and application and are recommended as pre- and post-training assessments on various training themes. 

The resources that you will find within the SDG Navigator Digital Hub and Toolbox contributes to increasing the attractiveness of VET by fostering open and participative learning environments and supporting the professional development of VET teachers and trainers. The toolbox also aims to establish and reinforce long-term partnerships with businesses, VET providers, chambers of commerce, and other relevant stakeholders, enhancing the impact of skills competitions and other collaborative initiatives.
