PROJECT NO. 2021-1-IT01-KA220-VET-000035649

Are you interested in supporting people to improve their career journeys through learning, skills, reskilling and upskilling, work and transitions?

Career guidance describes the services which help people of any age to manage their careers and to make the educational, training and occupational choices that are right for them.

It helps people to reflect on their ambitions, interests, qualifications, skills and talents – and to relate this knowledge about who they are to who they might become within the labour market.

Objectives

We are six partner organizations from all over Europe – Italy, Finland, Spain, France, Belgium and Ireland.
We collaborate with many stakeholders, which lets us reach very large and diverse audiences.

The project’s results will be released as digital Open Educational Resources because we care about accessibility and sustainability.

Our goal is to innovate career guidance.

The project would like to build up a new generation of professional European Career Guides able to support people to improve their career journey through learning, skills, reskilling and upskilling, work and transitions – a need more and more important especially in difficult and evolving times.

Implementation

Effective and innovative career guidance should support individuals to act based on 4 elements.

› REFLECT Starting from a personal point of view the individuals are invited to self-awareness, self-consciousness and IKIGAI (a Japanese concept referring to having a direction or purpose in life).

›› GROW Individuals are stimulated to a lifelong learning perspective to personal and professional growth thanks to soft skills, mindsets, antifragility, upskilling and reskilling, frequent Vocational Education and Training, networking.

››› GO OUTSIDE To explore the possibilities and to interact with the job market thanks to personal branding, skills intelligence, networking, understanding the world and how it could affect the personal careers.

›››› MANAGEMENT AND EVOLUTION Management of a position, the evolution of careers, transitions, antifragility and challenges.
