FAIRGUIDANCE

Closed

For the FairGuidance project, eight organisations join their competences in order to create innovative guidance strategies to support disadvantaged persons. The project’s aim is to integrate low-skilled persons, migrants, ethnic minorities, long-term unemployed and other marginalised groups into guidance, training and the labour market. In order to achieve this, the project consortium will develop 16 PA9 Investing in People and Skills 2018 a handbook for more client-oriented guidance offers that considers diversity issues. The handbook will be used by staff in VET and it will have an impact on their professional development. Persons from disadvantaged backgrounds will benefit from these more individualised guidance services. The challenge often is to reach disadvantaged persons and to respond as a counsellor adequately to their needs and particular circumstances. At this point the project comes into play as it will not only facilitate the access to guidance services but also the transition to further education, training and the world of work.
