Final report summary

The civil wars in different parts of the world and destabilisation of some countries and the impact of the international financial crisis and slowing down of economical situations to be seen also on European level affecting in an intensive form the most vulnerable persons; low incomes families,marginalized people, people at risk of socio-economic exclusion , migrants ,asylum seekers,ex-offenders ,Roma people refugees and elderly persons holding redundant job position or skills that don't enable them with sufficient agility in the Labor Market. A big number of companies ( small or big/national or transnational) closed their doors for work; many people went in unemployment period; many people are enable to find a job according with their formal education, skills or competencies. Above these phenomenon, the emergence of "New Information and Communication Technologies" and the materializations of the efforts to transit towards the information society and knowledge economy made things even more difficult for needy persons (learning need, money need, education need, social need or other personal or professional needs). Through this project we ,as all the project ,partners intend to provide valuable job skills and career opportunities to people who often face challenges re-entering the workforce because of social discrimination. The modules of this learning partnership takes a holistic approach to prepare individuals to be self-sufficient. It not only provides jobs to women,migrants ,refugees,asylum seekers,Roma people and ex-offenders, and others who face barriers to employment, but also offers a wide range of training, education, mentoring and networking for all the disadvantaged people especially women and migrants. The objectives of the project are to enhance the capability of partnership Erasmus+ professionals to formulate, elaborate and institutionally integrate E-learning and traditional learning short educational modules, fostering learning context for skills and abilities in respect with individual socio-economic inclusion into the labor market. One of the genuinely problems that our project partnership intends to offer a solution to, is dealing with the gap between Labor Market needs in terms of talent and creativity and the European aging people without a job, without skills and competencies for many of the new jobs.Our project aims at reaching for what appears to be impossible by being different and making a difference: "SCE-TRAMEUR " module as a feasible alternative for "in short time socio-economic inclusion of marginalized people". Our institutional experts, trainers can identify in an adult, skills, competence, and can grow attitudes to put a person in need back into labor market in a very short time. Our experts, trainers can identify jobs that are disappearing, new jobs that appears on the Labour Market. That is because an employed adult has (after a period of being active into Labor Market) those skills and abilities than can be used as base for a new job. But not all former employees realize this fact and it's our mission to support them to become both (employer and employees) more confident and self-aware, and better hard and soft skilled. People belonging to disadvantaged groups, who are the main target group and final beneficiaries of the project, participated in the surveys and researches conducted within the scope of the project, which collected data from the field, and thus field analyzes were made.After the field analysis, these people were divided into categories according to their needs and various trainings were given to these people according to their interests, abilities and capacities.Those who are prone to entrepreneurship were given E-Trade and Growing Medicinal Aromatic Plant.Those who are not prone to entrepreneurship and are talented in different fields were given vocational training in a wide variety of fields, from Carpentry and Metalworks to Medical secretariat and Documentation, Embroidery, Sewing,Digital Literacy,Linguistic Competence and Writing effective CV Trainings and Nursing in partner countries.
