Future jobs from north to south

Description

Context and background:Companies are looking for employees who are very well qualified and who have all the necessary skills for future-proof work. The shortage of skilled workers is evident in many areas of the economy. Young disadvantageous people, on the other hand, must catch up on skills that are needed for the current and future labour market. There is a need for our project to minimize the gap between the two stakeholders.The employees in our diverse facilities also need support in imparting relevant skills. The trainers therefore must be trained to provide the young people with the necessary know-how. Learning digital methods plays an essential role here. Our employees need training on how to use digital tools in learning. Vocational preparation and vocational training, individual advice and support on the labour market need future-oriented development in the direction of technological and digital change, always from the perspective of inclusion.The Future Jobs from North to South project aims to respond to these developments in a three-step process. Thanks to the project partners' many years of experience with young, disadvantaged people, we can share our knowledge of the projects at European level.Objectives:We want to share the expertise of partner organizations and learn together new ways, how we can work with the world of work and achieve future qualification requirements. We aim to: 1. Improve the skills and competencies of the participating employees 2. Strengthen the link between the strategy of the organizations and the cooperation and collaboration with companies 3. Promote wider opportunities for cooperation and collaboration and joint development of partners 4. Get more visibility for internationalization 5. Raise the awareness of the needs of future jobs at all levels Participants:The partners in the project are CJD from Germany as a coordinator, CNOS-FAP from Italy, Luovi Vocational College from Finland and Stiftelsen Utbildning Nordkalotten, the Arctic Vocational Foundation, Utbildning Nord from Sweden. The partners have many years of expertise in working with young, disadvantaged people, in working with companies and in international work. Furthermore, all project partners have experience in working on international and national projects.The participants are teachers and other staff members who work closely with companies in as a part of their daily activities.Description of activities and methodology used:The method we use in the project is sharing good practises, sharing knowledge and learning together. We will organise one transnational project meetings during the project duration of two years. Otherwise coordinators meet online to monitor and evaluate the project progress and to ensure the sustainability of project results.Besides, LTT activities are important to work together in practice. There will be four LTT activities in the project, one in each participating country to share the knowledge and work together. We aim to involve companies and local authorities e.g. employment offices to participate. Each partner will collect background information of the characteristics of each country from surveys and other available sources. Between the activities we will work online, too. After every LTT activity the participants will publish a blog to share the core findings of the workshops.We have planned dissemination activities based on the wide networks of each partner to support the sustainability and use of the results. Results and impact:Blogs are the direct products of the working together. They will introduce the main findings and lessons learnt from each LTT activity. Besides, the blogs will result in a cooperation model, how VET providers can work with the companies and what are the different aspects that should be considered. The impact at individual participants’ level can be summarized as increased skills and competences in collaboration with the world of work as well as international skills. The participants will have a better understanding of the future skills and competences.At organisation level the impact will be a more developed models for collaboration with the companies and strengthened possibilities to meet the future needs of labour market. They will have more competent staff to work with the companies and more possibilities for international cooperation.The project process and results will reach a wide group of VET schools and companies through the networks directly involved and through linkages to other existing relevant organisations and networks.
