The Consortium identified the specific needs of the participants: - Poor knowledge of a second language, which prevents them from meeting the demands of the labor market. - Lack of experience or practical training in their professional field, which makes it impossible for them to be competitive. - Lack of specialization - Requirement of continuous adaptation to new technologies (ICTs). Based on the socioeconomic context, the needs detected and the general objective of the project, we wanted to work on the following specific objectives: - Complete the process of acquiring quality training and promote effective and specialized professional internships abroad. - Combat the lack of connection between the business and educational world - Provide participants with an opportunity to improve a second language - Develop the capacity for entrepreneurship, to create more autonomous and sustainable societies - Raise awareness of the opportunities offered by new sources of employment - Make society aware of the importance of carrying out actions at international levels that contribute to local economic development and knowledge of new realities and cultures.
The project "ALCORCÓN EN EUROPE VI" coordinated by the Municipal Institute for Employment and Economic Promotion of Alcorcón (IMEPE), in consortium with 9 other entities in the field of training and employment, has as its main objective to promote the labor insertion of participants, improving their chances of development staff and levels of employability thanks to experience abroad. Given the high rate of unemployment in Alcorcón, Móstoles and neighboring municipalities, this project arises from the need to give continuity to the previous editions "ALCORCÓN EN EUROPA" and continues improving the employment situation of people. The students to whom the project was directed were: - Physical and sports activities - Administration and management - Graphic arts - Trade and marketing - Electricity and electronic - Energy and water - Hostel and Tourism - Image and sound - IT and communications - Health - Security and environment - Sociocultural and Community Services
