The workforce of the future – Strengthening the real level of education

The aim of the project is to provide training for skilled workers in SMEs and to provide training for unskilled adults who are ready for work and training and which can form part of a company’s overall plan for the development of the level of training for their employees, thereby helping to realise the overall growth of enterprises. Agreements will be made with the individual employee on a training plan that ensures a competence increase for the individual employee to the Academy level.In addition, the project will search a number of unskilled people. The goal is for 85 unskilled people to receive a qualification. The unskilled are linked to the participating SMEs – for example, in a job rotation scheme. This means that companies have the opportunity to invest in training and thus have the right competences at their disposal and thereby strengthen competition.The project will screen 280-350 SMEs throughout the project period. Together with the partners in the project, an activity model will be developed which, through its specific competences, will help to increase the real level of competence of 145 SMEs and thereby increase enterprises’ opportunities for growth and profit through targeted skills development. In future, the model will be continued by the partners in the project. Activities of the project: Selection and agreement with 145 SMEs that wish to further train their skilled employees.Discovering companies’ needs for skills development of employees with skilled staff. Selecting specific AU training for the individual employee and launching training courses. Identifying enterprises’ needs for unskilled adults who are ready for work, so that these new employees, through a search and clarification of competences and wishes, can provide a training course for companies to acquire capacity.Continuous dialogue with managers of the company and employees to ensure retention in the training process.
