The transition to a green economy is a mega trend which affects skill needs across many different jobs and sectors. Green skills are becoming an essential part of all jobs, as happened with the ICT skills. That is why the CEDEFOP highlights that "generic skills need to be improved across the entire workforce" and "Understanding the environmental impact of an occupation needs to be mainstreamed into education and training systems". Integrating sustainable development and environmental issues into existing qualifications is much more effective than creating new training standards. Green Employability aims to implement a synergic transfer of VET training system for workplace basic skills with ecological sustainability awareness in 3 target countries - Bulgaria, Spain and Sweden, responding to the shift of the European labor market towards smart and sustainable jobs. The project objectives are to raise the awareness of ecological issues among VET teachers and to support improvements in quality in VET systems in the 3 target countries through importing an innovative methodology and contents.The project consortium includes 7 partners from 5 countries, all possessing experience in introducing and promoting innovations in VET. The target partners will be supported by partners from Austria and Italy who will bring their expertise, in particular Austrian partners who were developers of the original products and will support the adaptation and quality management.The partnership will transfer and adapt a GREEN EMPLOYABILITY TRAINING SYSTEM containing a CURRICULUM and training materials for workplace basic skills with ecological sustainability awareness, as well as DIDACTIC GUIDELINES and IMPLEMENTATION CONCEPT that will enhance the application and mainstreaming of the methodology among teachers and stakeholders in VET. Additionally, a GREEN BOOK for Workplacement Ecological Awareness will be developed, containing a comprehensive set of indicators for Workplacement Ecological Awareness. In each target country the outcomes will be validated through train-the-trainer trainings and improved with the recommendations of national stakeholders. A Green Strategic Group in each partner country will contribute for the adaptation and mainstreaming of the outputs. The final products will be available in the target partners’ languages and in English for free downloads on the website. As an impact the project will improve the capacity of VET teachers and systems in the 3 target countries to promote green employability skills and awareness.
