In 2015, more than 6,6 million young people (aged 15-24 years) were neither in employment nor in education or training (NEETs) in the EU. Many of them come from disadvantaged background. Most services addressed to NEETs are delivered by youth educators, however a European standard for youth educators working with NEETs, and tools to check the quality of their work is missing.This project aims was to improve the current situation by mapping the Competence profile of youth educators working with NEETs, and by developing a methodology for assessment of their competence called expertise checkup, a E-course course for assessors, a European certification and a register for assessors and youth educators that have passed the checkup. The checkup was carried out thanks also to a web platform. The description of the Competence profile of the youth educator working with NEETs is based on ECVET, and the checkup on the European Council recommendation on validation of non-formal and informal learning and to the European Guidelines for Validating Not Formal and Informal Learning developed by CEDEFOP.The project consortium is composed by organizations working with NEETs based in PL, UK, ES, SK. Also, many other organizations working with NEETs and youth workers were involved in project activities thanks to partners wide networks.Thank to variety of dissemination activities, over 20 000 people from target groups was informed about the project, and over 400 youth educators were directly involved in it.
