GuidEU

The primary goal of the GuidEU project is to prevent students from dropping out of school and disengagement from the labour market by providing individualized, high-quality career guidance systems and tools that assist lower and upper secondary with career exploration and address a shortage of highly qualified counsellors.
To better connect curriculum to global employment prospects and minimize skill and career mismatches, the project aims to forge strong connections between schools, training facilities, businesses, and parents across national boundaries.
The project was finalized in August 2019, and the consortium has worked with private and public schools, organizations, and institutions involved in the field of education/training, in Poland, Cyprus, Spain, and Turkey.
To achieve the results that the consortium has set, the involved countries had to create a benchmark report of effective and high-quality career guidance, design tools that would identify and measure students’ professional skills and predispositions, and create a digitalized board game that would help them understand the labour market. Finally, part of the process was the development of a training tool that mainly consists of career guidance provision.
