GAP

About the project

Our project ‘Against the gap between training and labour world’ – GAP is being implemented in the framework of the ERASMUS+ programme as a Cooperation partnership in vocational education and training.

The overall aim of GAP is to enhance the methods used by Vocational Training Centers (VET) to target the integration of vulnerable adults. The development of the trainees’ technical and non-technical competencies, the reduction of social and financial barriers, the improvement of self-awareness and security, the creation of a personal project, etc., are all aspects that encourage job insertion.

VET Centers consider these characteristics as standalone objectives rather than as components of a comprehensive strategy for the insertion process. Instead of taking a holistic strategy, the aggregated approach to the trainees’ demands has poor results in terms of insertion and causes the trainees and VET center to lose contact after the action.

The project aims to bring together in a global methodology the logic of global synergies for support:

To improve the integration process for Vocational Training Centers (VET);
To create synergies between vocational training professionals;
To equip and improve vocational guidance and job-coaching processes in VET;
To provide managers with tools to guide their organisation’s actions towards better integration;
To provide experts with a methodological framework for supporting VET.
