The concern for improving the continuous training framework of USLIP members led to the formation of the Vocational Training Center in 2021, created with the explicit purpose of identifying the professional needs of union members from the 224 schools in Iasi County.
The vision of the VTC USLIP focuses on a world without borders, in which human rights will be protected and all forms of discrimination will be eliminated.
The mission of the VTC USLIP is to connect the youth, education, and business communities, providing structured non-formal learning and knowledge needed for promoting sustainable development.

VTC USLIP offers training programs to educate employees with the following profiles:
-teachers, managers, members of the school boards, methodists, members of the quality assurance commission, members of the European projects commission, union leaders, and all those concerned with continuous professional training.
