The European finals of the 8th edition of the EuroSkills 2023 competition were held in Gdańsk. After all, not in Saint Petersburg due to Russia’s entry into the war with Ukraine. As a matter of fact, it is the most significant event in the field of vocational training and skills development in Europe combining the industrial, social, and educational sectors. During three days of competition, nearly 600 people aged 18-25 from 32 European countries performed in 42 contests. Their skills were assessed by over 500 experts from all over Europe, who first supported the national teams in their preparations. To summarize, the finals were organized with the FRSE, WorldSkills Poland, WorldSkills Europe, the City of Gdańsk, and AmberExpo Gdańsk.

Medals for Poland in Euroskills 2023

Poland was represented by 41 people in 36 disciplines, selected from the SkillsPoland Gdańsk 2022. Out of 13 medals, three were won by representatives of new technologies. Firstly, Jan Firlej won the gold medal in electronics. Secondly, Hubert Krasuski and Piotr Wyrzyk won the same medal in robot integration. In turn, the bronze medal was won by Dorota Cieślicka in digital construction. It is a significant improvement compared to EuroSkills Graz 2021, when Poland, taking part in 16 competitions, won only 3 bronze medals. But none in new technologies, only in cooking, floristry, and welding. All in all, the European finals have been organized since 2006. Still, Poland has been participating in them for 5 years. For example, during its first start in EuroSkills Budapest 2018, it won only 1 medal of excellence for cooking.
