DYPA Upskilling & Reskilling Vouchers

DYPA regularly launches training calls for unemployed people and employees, often focused on high-demand skills (frequently including digital and green skills). These initiatives are typically delivered via a voucher mechanism, and may include a dedicated certification step after training.

Training Programs under Greece 2.0 (Recovery & Resilience Facility)

Some large-scale training actions are part of the national recovery plan (Greece 2.0 / NextGenerationEU) and can fund upskilling or reskilling in areas like digital and “green” skills, depending on the active call and your eligibility.

Training Voucher Platform (voucher.gov.gr)

Many public training calls in Greece run through the national Training Voucher system. It supports the full training lifecycle—from application and selection through to implementation and payments—so it’s a useful place to follow active calls and instructions.

Employer-Funded Training (ELEKP / LAEK – 0.24%)

If you’re employed, your company may be able to fund training through DYPA’s employer training schemes linked to the ELEKP/LAEK training account (funded via an employer contribution). There are also routes tailored to small businesses (often referenced as 1–49).

EU-Co-Funded Upskilling Programmes (ESF+ / national calls)

In addition to Greece 2.0 actions, Greece runs training initiatives supported by EU funds (for example ESF+), which may target specific regions, sectors, or audiences. These are published as public calls and frequently use a voucher-style structure.

Employer Sponsorship + Learning Budgets

Many teams in Greece fund professional development through internal learning budgets—especially when skills like Cyber Security, Web Development, UX/UI Design, or Data Science & AI are directly tied to business goals. If you’re exploring this route, we can help you frame a clear learning plan for your manager or HR team.


How To Get Started in Greece

Funding routes can feel complicated because the details are tied to each call (eligibility, deadlines, participating providers, and required documents). The simplest approach is to start with what’s currently open—and then plan your bootcamp path around your realistic timeline.
