Effective Training for NEETs
Date du début: 1 sept. 2014, Date de fin: 31 août 2016 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

According to Eurostat's January 2014 publication on Unemployment statistics for the year 2013 for the EU28, youth unemployment is one of the major challenges of EU employment policy .12.9% of those aged 15–24 in the EU28 are currently not in employment, education or training which corresponds to approximately 5.5 million young people. The project aims to develop, improve and provide innovative support and deliver significant impact on the quality and effectiveness of training available and offered to young adults who are from disadvantaged backgrounds and are Not in Employment, Education or Training (NEETs) . These young adults are generally disproportionately affected by a lack of opportunities which has been accelerated through the current economic crisis. This situation engenders a lack of motivation that affects not only their educational and work prospects but also their integration into society. Training programmes for NEETs incorporate a variety of elements to teach key competences and basic skills and are currently being designed and delivered by local governments, charities and NGOs. These training providers have no platform to discuss experiences, problems, successes or results and therefore opportunities to exchange best practice are missed. The project will work together with its Target Groups to gather, analyse and produce data to support the development of a common framework for identifying indicators to measure successful training. The project will produce a Web Platform which, for the first time, will bring together training organisations from all levels (locally, nationally and EU-wide) which enables them to communicate, organise exchange and find methods of best practice. It will also allow them to publish and evaluate their own methods and assist them to compare programs offered by other organisations using the web platform's Matrix software tool. The findings and results produce from the gathered data will form a Final Report-Best Practices for Effective Training for NEETs. This report will be published onto the web platform and be available for stakeholders to download and use as a reference guide for training NEETs. The project will design and deliver two 5-day Pilot NEET Training courses where cross border mobility will be included in the experience. The two courses will be evaluated (including vital feedback from the NEETs) and the results will be avalable in a Pilot Performance Report(PPR) and published onto the web platform. From the results of the Final Report and the PPR the project team will design and produce a course for teachers and trainers of NEETs to use. The Training Materials for NEET Teachers (TMNT) will include elements, methods and techniques that have been tested and proved to be successful. The TMNT courses will promote mobility as a significant factor in delivering more effective results in this sector of adult education. The project will bring together a mix five partners from four EU countries that include, a local government authority, an adult education college, two private adult training providers and an ICT specialist in adult training software programs in key competences and basic skills. The project partners have, between them, the relevant experience, expertise and links required to the NEET community to deliver the work and fulfill the aims of the project. The aim of this consortium is to significantly decrease the numbers of young adults who are NEETs by offering them better training. The major change envisaged by this project is to provide European stakeholders with exchange and to share the success of effective training offered to NEETs.
