Description
1) Objective
Projects under this priority will identify and test methods and mechanisms to improve guidance and counselling services to adults, with a particular focus on reaching out to and supporting workers in small and micro-enterprises, at all levels, including management. Ideally projects should devise approaches that have the potential of becoming mainstreamed. Projects should support guidance services:
- Providing coordinated services offering skills assessment, directing individuals to tailor-made learning options, with validation of the acquired skills.
- Improving the career management skills of individuals.
- Making use of skills intelligence and digital tools, including artificial intelligence, in career guidance to capitalise on new efficiencies and scale.
- Supporting employers to identify which skills their enterprises will need and how they can support their employees to assess and acquire these skills.
- Reinforcing career guidance counsellors’ training and competence development so that they can support individuals to unlock their full potential.
