COM-IN Project
Training programmes for counsellors for implementing community integration of difficult-to-employ people
Project context
The partnership has found out, that counsellors, working in employment offices, vocational and training organizations, NGOs, municipalities, and other organizations, dealing with working and social integration, have lack of competences for working integration of difficult-to-employ people (DTE).
On the other hand, we have established that collaboration and exchange of information among different organisations is weak: in some countries we can find cases of good cooperation between different organisations in the area of working integration process of DTE.
We have also found out that in the participating countries there are no officially certified programmes for counselling of DTE.
The main project’s objectives are:
- To empower counsellors in employment offices, vocational and training organizations, NGOs, and local communities for better use of methods and approaches for working integration of DTE.
- To empower a “community coordinator” to coordinate community activities for social and working integration of DTE and to improve collaboration and networking among different organizations in the process of inclusion of DTE.
- To standardize education and training contents and methods for the “counsellor for DTE" and to increase accessibility to standardized programmes for this profile.
Activities
In order to reach the project objectives, we will:
- prepare a training programme for the counsellor for difficult-to-employ people, a training programme for the community coordinator for DTE and
- develop certification programme proposal for counsellor for DTE.
