Project Summary

In this very hard period, due to the Pandemic, we need to reinvent the way we work; there are less opportunities to have face to face meetings and a lot of activities are carried out on-line. We want to discover and learn how the EU countries are responding to the new lifestyle Covid-19 imposed on us.
As an organization working in the youth field, the most relevant priority is supporting educators, youth workers, educational leaders, support staff and teachers with a path on education and training about the strategies and the good practices that associations and schools are using to offer the same quality services.
The idea is developing strategic partnerships supporting the setting up and implementation of international strategies for VET providers and for the organizations involved in the project: NaKa from Italy, K.A.N.E. from Greece, Marketmentoro Ltd from Cyprus, Hexagonal from France, CIP Lumbier from Spain, Liceul Tehnologic “Valeriu Braniște” from Romania.
We know that some partners have started to find and apply, in their daily work, strategies and methodologies that have allowed them to move part of their work online while continuing to guarantee the same services that were offered before the global pand. Therefore, the first step of the project will be the analysis of the methodologies and good practices of the partners. This stage will be carried out online.
The second steps of the project is staff mobility. Youth workers, educators and teachers will learn from the hosting partners, which methodologies they are developing to continue to work in the field of career guidance, orientation and training.
The third step will be the application of the methodologies learned from the other countries involved in the project. We think about applying the acquired methodologies in schools, during meetings sessions with the students to help them identify their educational path and professional interests. At the same time, we want to improve the services we offer in NaKa, opening an educational and career guidance service point inside of our organisation.
We would like to improve our capacity to:
– identify labour market issues to offer the best career guidance for fight the unemployment of young and adult people;
– developed new ways to write more effective curricula and innovative educational methods;
– develop training courses to upgrade the opportunities of the young and adult through open and distance learning.
