E.A.S.Y. LAB. - Entrepreneurship And Self-emploYment by real experiences in LABour market

Description

“E.A.S.Y. LAB. - Entrepreneurship And Self-emploYment by real experiences in LABour market” has allowed 60 young graduates residing in Basilicata Region to carry out a 4 month training period abroad in the sectors of food and wine, tourism and hotel hospitality (20 in France, 20 in Spain and 20 in the United Kingdom). The project, raising from the cooperation among the members of the National Consortium led by EuForMed Srls, aimed at promoting employment and entrepreneurship in the strongest sectors of regional economy, supporting a development model that was able to respect its economic-productive vocation.The objectives of the project regarded the beneficiaries and partners’ perspectives of development, can be considered widely achieved in consideration of the following analysis:-the greater knowledge of job opportunities coming from tourism and food and wine industry has been achieved not only by the realization of the 60 mobility programs abroad but also through the information and dissemination actions implemented by the members of the Consortium;-the increase of hard skills in the project sectors involved the 60 participants who, through their work experience abroad, were able to acquire, in accordance with the Regional Framework of Qualifications, knowledge and skills associated with specific units of expertise;-the development of interpersonal, communicative, organizational and management skills of the participants who, thanks to the mobility experience, have been able to acquire a great deal of information on the culture and economy of the host country, as well as on the modalities of interaction within a professional context;-the development of the skills recognition systems was prompted by the use of the Europass and ECVET tools. Albeit without having an operative recognition system at regional level, the need to certify the experiences abroad has allowed the Consortium members to acquire a methodology that will facilitate a wider use of the European certification and validation systems.The National Consortium and the individual members have been able to reach objectives that concerned a better knowledge of the professional figures and related competences of the tourism and food and wine sector; the strengthening of language skills; the empowerment of transnational cooperation tools necessary to increase European mobility; the enhancement of the link between school/training and productive sectors.The project has reached impacts on the beneficiaries and the organizations involved, as well as at local, national and European level. With reference to the participants, some of the impacts could be observed immediately at the end of the mobility period:-achievement of a greater awareness of their professional opportunities (100% of the participants);-acquisition of professional skills related to their field of study (88% of participants);-acquisition of soft skills related to the ability to work responsibly and professionally (100% of participants);-strengthening of foreign language skills (95% of participants).The impacts on the participants’ competences and the support action carried out by EuForMed and the partner organizations are also producing positive impacts on the participants’ employment opportunities. EuForMed has already been able to assess that the 32% of the participants received a job offer from foreign companies (against the initial expectation of 10%).Furthermore, the project action represented an important tool for consolidating collaborations within the Consortium and with foreign partners, responding to the internationalization need that was at the basis of the project action. Through the development and sharing of collaborative skills/competences within the partnership there have been impacts on the capacity of management and coordination of joint activities and projects, including future ones. Thanks to the skills acquired, the Consortium has been creating the conditions to act at regional level by proposing a training and employment strategy meeting the specifics needs of the labour market.
