Meet the WorldSkills Lyon 2024 Ambassadors 

In the month of March, the WorldSkills Lyon 2024 Organizing Committee launched its Ambassadors Programme, also known as “Skills Addict”. Former international and national Competitors are doing us the honor of collaborating with us to share their inspiring journeys and career paths, and to raise awareness about the WorldSkills movement, youth excellence, and the importance of skills. Meet some of our French Ambassadors.
