THE PROJECT
Partners of the project carried out a study in each of the project partner’s country among VET providers and employers, in order to suit the project activities directly to the needs of apprentices/VET students and their future employers. Based on the study, the transversal skills for this project were chosen. Such as time management, the use of sustainable business model, communication, problem solving and team work. Both sides have ensured the need for a project as the present one and future potential cooperation were established.
During the project, the partners will create an e-course to provide educational materials on the skills needed by the market, a digital serious game, used as practical application of the information gained, and a scoring system, used as an assessment method. The platform hosting those tools will be available for apprentice and VET students, teachers, counsellors and other professionals working with young adults.
The SGAG products have been prepared to offer a concrete support to teachers and educators, but also youth workers and work instructors, tutors, mentors and any other education professional supporting young people from 13 to 19 years of age personal development.
