Promoting Employment through VET

Description

The Government Office for Békés County implemented the project entitled ’VET to Job – Promoting Employment through VET’ in a consortium with the cooperation of a Finnish vocational education and training school, a Cypriot and British non-profit counselling and adult education and training institution, a Spanish training and counselling organisation and an Austrian employment service. The general aim of the project was to search – through European cooperation – for appropriate solutions to enhance the employment and social integration of people either without any qualifications or with qualifications not demanded by the labour-market, and so help prevent them becoming unemployment. There was a need at every partner organisation to train the leaders and professionals working in the field of career guidance and VET and to improve their professional competences.The basics of the partnership came from the fact that the integration of people either with no or outdated qualification into the labour-market was a problem across partner organisations’ countries. At the same time every partner applies good practices for handling the problem, which can be adapted into the partner countries. Therefore learning from each other helps accomplishing the project aims. To ensure the successful implementation of the project, the partners organised international meetings in every participating country, during which – as well as introducing the organisations themselves – the methods and best practices applied at the partner organisations for improving the employment situation of people with no or outdated qualifications were presented.The most important result of the common work for the Hungarian, Austrian, British, Cypriot, Finnish and Spanish partnership is the Brochure of Best Practices. 2 best practices or labour-market programmes per country were presented, each of which contribute to raising the learning motivation of job-seekers to acquire new qualifications and/or employment. The Brochure of Best Practices was created in English and Hungarian. Every partner individually created a brief guide in English and their own national languages, which provided some guiding instructions on what methods and best practices professionals should apply in order to realise the project’s aim. The guide contains brief recommendations for 3 target groups: counsellors; institutions offering training and VET and professionals working at employment services; teachers working in VET and are interested in reducing the number of drop-outs.The most important results of the project are widely spread and disseminated during and even after the project, on the partner organisations’ websites, at professional forums, meetings, they are available for everybody interested, in each partner country. The organisations will use the acquired knowledge in creating partnerships linking the actors of employment and training, the system to be established in such a way will contribute to operating methods helping job-seekers having outdated skills or any skills to find employment through VET and motivate students finishing formal education in choosing VET.
