Intellectual Outputs

Further to the preliminary research conducted by all partners, during this I.O. further evidence will be collected in order to produce is a Comparative-Survey-Report highly useful for the development of the project’s aims and in compliance with the New Priorities of the ET2020 Report, the 2016 EC Recommendation “A New Skills Agenda for Europe” and the “Skills Guarantee”, the 2015 ’Renewed framework for European cooperation in the youth field 2010-18).

The Digital/Employability Competence Charter (framework) and the Open Badges (OB) system is an attempt to introduce quality standards to the provision of digital programmes, both in relation to the strengthening of young peoples' profiles, but also in relation to the introduction of evidence-based data for quality assurance. This will later be linked to the self evaluation (on-line stock taking), the professional action-plan to be proposed for each participant through the provision of the e-platform, ICT Guides, e-resources/tools for blended learning in-house, on-line and face-to-face training and the validation process to…

The on-line assessment service will guide young people (participants) to create their profile and then self-assess their skills (stock-taking), attitudes, knowledge and practices in relation to the aspects, benchmarks and indicators used in the Digital and Employability Competence Charter. The e-tool could (if decided) to also provide the opportunity to use peer-assessment using the Mentoring technique which is expected to provide constructive reflections on young people's digital literacy abilities needed for employment. Finally the tool will provide the external-assessment for validation purposes for issuing a badge at certain levels according…

The output foresees the development of a dynamic and interactive e-platform to be used for the purpose of the project which will function as an Open Learning Environment, offering interactivity options through the e- DC4JOBS Academy to be set with learning opportunities, the e-EMPLOYMENT DATA BANK with useful information, e-tools, supporting services and the e-DC4JOBS Community for mentoring, peer and expert support, guidance and exchange of good practices. The IO4 is expected to stimulate and empower even further the opportunities for digital and employability acquisition for young people, to ensure…

“UP-SKILLING Training Programme” will be designed for young people for acquiring digital/employability skills as defined in IO1/2 and utilise all products. The IO6 will provide the opportunity to implement the outputs developed, pilot test, evaluate and revise them before they are openly provided to be used at the National and EU level. By the end of this IO not only a substantial number of young people (over 100) will be trained face-to-face and on-line, but a complete UPSKILLING training Programme will be produced with case studies, guidelines, strategy, monitoring tools,…
