Career Skills Project                               

The Career Skills Project aims to become a Europe-wide online one-stop shop acknowledging the needs of career guidance practitioners, stakeholders (policymakers, employers, educational institutions), and disadvantaged groups (low-skilled or over-skilled individuals, NEETs, older workers, people who seek support for career transition, etc.).

The consortium aims to achieve and develop the following tasks; the career skills platform, the catalogue, a massive open online course (MOOC), a free online map of career services, and the career skills network. 

The project has been completed in November, 2022 and subsequently you can find the successful results. The Career Skills Platform is a European online space dedicated to explaining, developing, and supporting career management skills in the lifespan. The platform has been visited by 18,890 unique visitors and 850 users have registered, benefiting from all the tools and material that will remain available until the end of 2025. 

MOOC consists of 360 exercises divided into 12 modules, suitable for all ages. 247 trainers were trained and piloted the course to 568 learners of whom 96% provided very positive feedback on the practical approach, diversity of tasks, learning approach, and usefulness. 

Lastly, 540 career counsellors and organisations are registered on the online map which connects career seekers with qualified career practitioners. 

The Career Skills projects have been implemented in Bulgaria, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, and the UK.
