The FAST Project (KA2 – Strategic Partnerships for VET) addresses a major barrier to accessible travel by redefining and professionalizing Personal Assistant Services through the creation of the Accessibility Travel Facilitator (ATF) role. By establishing clear duties, qualifications, and an EQF-aligned framework, FAST ensures formal recognition, mobility, and lifelong learning opportunities for future ATFs while strengthening VET’s role in accessible tourism. The project develops curricula, training materials, and assessment tools to equip learners with the necessary skills, while engaging VET trainers, local authorities, tourism SMEs, and stakeholders across Europe. With at least 460 participants, FAST aims to reduce cost barriers for disabled travelers, expand accessible tourism markets, and foster safer, more inclusive travel conditions—demonstrating the vital role of vocational education in enhancing both employability and the tourism experience.
