Skills are events where skilled learners in many crafts and other professions compete in specific disciplines and include other activities of relevance to vocational education. Primary school students can visit Skills as part of their schooling and vocational guidance. Skills create a multifaceted space with many choices, sounds, tastes, smells, visual and other sensory impressions and ways of experiencing the many crafts and their materiality. In this form, the guidance represents the ideas behind ‘practical expertise’. Based on empirical findings at EueoSkills2025 and including theory of architecture and learning, the article sheds light on this. It is concluded that primary school students do not necessarily gain detailed insight into the skills and disciplines, because of the lack of opportunities for dialogue. Skills can contribute to curiosity and interest, but more attention is suggested to didactic organization with a view to dialogue.
