It will be a unique event: In 2022, WorldSkills, the World Championships of Professions, will be held for the first time in 15 different countries and regions of the world as a Special Edition with 61 skill competitions. The WorldSkills Competition 2022 Special Edition is thus the official replacement for WorldSkills Shanghai 2022, which was cancelled at the end of May.
One venue for the WorldSkills Competition is the Nuremberg Exhibition Centre (NürnbergMesse) with the international trade fair Chillventa. Here, from 10 to 13 October 2022, the best specialists in refrigeration and air conditioning technology will compete against each other. Competitors from a total of 16 nations will compete for the world championship title. Over 20 hours spread over 4 days, the specialists have to solve tasks at the highest level.

“This is WorldSkills and this unique community: within a very short period of time, the best experts around the globe have worked to create a quick replacement,” said Hubert Romer, Managing Director and Official Delegate of WorldSkills Germany. “This Special Edition offers many forward-looking opportunities. It is a chance for our best skilled workers in the world to demonstrate their top skills, which they have worked hard to acquire over many months. It is important that we in Germany make our contribution and support the project. Thanks to the great solidarity of all partners, we will succeed.” Over 1,000 international professionals will take part in the competitions around the world within 12 weeks, from 7 September to 26 November 2022.
The opening of the WorldSkills Competition in Nuremberg will take place on 9 October 2022. On 14 October 2022, the medals will be awarded to the top specialists at the festive award ceremony.
