In the framework of the project, the local cooperation activities were established with already definned local institutions. 39 stakeholders including municipalities, schools, local labor Agencies, High school, Universities, youth centers, and networks were involved directly or indirectly in the project.
Based on partners’ cooperation we have created and spread questionnaires and finalized the survey on career guidance services in all partner countries. We collected 169 questionnaires from Students/Beneficiaries of guidance services and 154 questionnaires from Teachers/Professionals.

Using the results of the survey and with the help of the experts from Klaipeda Pedagogical Psychological Service, partners worked on the common analysis of the survey results and presentation of the analysis.
The results were presented on the Seminar in Klaipeda, where participated directly 16 beneficiaries from professionals who will share their knowledge and tools to their colleague and use new gained tools and techniques for their clients.
In CZ 2 articles based on the survey were published in cooperation with the Euroguidance network.
