In the project “Working connects, connecting works”, the partners Orionis (WSP municipalities Middelburg, Vlissingen and Veere), the boards for practical education and secondary special education De Korre and Respont and the care institutions Juvent and Gors will develop 2 methodologies that are consistent with a cross-domain approach. Firstly, it concerns the development of cross-domain counselling for young people aged 16 to 27. An important bottleneck is that the young person’s approach is often one-dimensional: it’s about school or work, or a benefit. In reality, young people have to deal with issues in different habitats. In cross-domain counselling, work is seen as a crucial factor in the well-being and social functioning of young people and job management is considered to be the main task of the life coach. From the mission to lead young people to work and place them sustainably, the life coach is a contact point for all parties involved in education, (youth) care and municipalities. The methodology will be published at the end of the project. In addition, the project will seek to connect with the private sector through the development of sector-oriented learning arrangements for basic functions. The packages consist not only of a curriculum, but also of work integration, guidance and facilities. By combining all the elements for successful and sustainable labour integration into an arrangement, the employer receives a total offer of which in advance the content, size and cost of work is known. Each developed arrangement for a basic function will be published in a factsheet for employers.
