In Italy, like OECD countries, there is a constant link between the issue of life long learning and life long career guidance, so institution and government plan a lot of career guidance actions towards young people or disadvantaged workers , whilst there is a lack of initiatives adressed to temporary or open ended employees. These kind of worker need support too, in order to find out or to build up new opportunities and new incentive in a more and more complex labour market. According to this situation it has to change the aims and the final goals of career guidance or counselling or coaching actions in the workplace, from a passive support to an active promotion of the work. Career guidance is a life long support that help workers in development life-long professional project through the lifelong learning action. DeSCarTES is a TOI project of Guidance Merger, Leonardo pilot project (2002-2004) with an ambition to create and taste innovative methods for guidance for adults in employment. The project is a transfer of innovation project, from the Swedish Guidance Merger old partner not only to new partner (Italy, Slovenia) but to new target i.g. large and SME enterprise (Unicredit Bank and Italian Southern SME) and to new disavantages employees such as women after maternity,over40 and contingent workers. GuidanceMerger showed that guidance can not be seen as activity carried out in isolation but must instead be seen as an integrated part of learning at the workplace. Objective of the proposal is to design and implement integrated career guidance run by HR Dpt aimed to:1. support employability for the workers; 2. promote targeted career guidance path and action to the needs of specific target groups ;3. improve the quality of work within the workplace;4.support the professional and geographical mobility;5.help the individual to identify and develop their skills to cope with many transition that they have to face over their life in a more and more flexible labor market e in the boundaryless oragnisations;7. promote their awareness in the workplace as a tool for active citizenship.At the end of the project the work group delivered a tool kit that provides information on:1.an overview of models and frameworks used in career discussion;2. a tested path to help aid reflection on personal experiences of career conversations;3. a model of an effective career discussion;4. practical tips for "givers" and "receivers" of career support;5.an assessment grid to measure the performance of the model;6. a web site.The partnership involved both large and small enterprises, to make analysis on a wide and diversified population span. Swedish (CFL was the leader of GuidanceMerger) and Slovenian partner covered countries with a very advanced VET system for the LLP strategy. At the end of the project there has been an increase of the percentage of adults in lifelong learning in the partner countries.
