KEY SKILLS & EMPLOYABILITY ASSESSMENT SERVICE FOR YOUNG AND ADULT LEARNERS

Despite the unprecedented levels of unemployment in European countries, still 32% of employers face difficulties with filling jobs due to the so-called “competences gap” while about 509,000 job vacancies are registered in the European ICT sector. The highly competitive European labour market requires increased transversal competences (TCs) key for employability that most young and adult learners, job-seekers and professionals are not well-aware of nor do they know how they can be assessed in view of improving their employability potential.

KeySTART2Work – Key Skills & Employability Assessment Service for Young and Adult Learners is an EU co-funded project under the Erasmus+ programme (2015-2016) implemented by 6 partners from 6 EU countries (Spain, Italy, Austria, Greece, Poland, and Belgium), experts in the fields of transversal competences empowerment and VET.

KeySTART2Work aims to bridge the gap between the labour market needs and the labour force skills, upskilling young and adult learners through the development of an innovative ICT tool for self-assessment of Transversal Competences (TCs) of VET learners and transferability guidelines and recommendations for the creation of a Support Service for further training the TCs of VET learners.
