PROJECT
FINISHED
The Local Agency for Employment and Training of the City Council of Getafe in the framework of its activity in support of entry into the Workforce of the disadvantaged and at risk groups, this year has decided to introduce a mobility proposal within the new
training program ERASMUS+.
The ALEF is proposing through the ODISEO 2015 project to give the possibility to a group of young people from Getafe to carry-out a quality professional training stay in businesses in different EU countries, with the fundamental aim of increasing their work
experience, contributing to a greater employability and as a result, of promoting entry into the workforce amongst young participants upon their return.
Beyond this main objective, ODISEO 2015 has predicted the achievement of some specific goals:
- To offer work experience to young people with difficulties entering the workforce.
- To offer a socio-cultural experience which will improve the socio-cultural skills of young people.
- To complete the Curriculum Vitae of the participant using European methods of certification for Professional Training.
- To count on the support of the business sector of Getafe, which will recognise the competencies acquired by young people during their mobility experience.
- To strengthen the strategic associations of the public and private sector in the interest of improving the employability of young people from the local area.
- To contribute to the European Strategy 2020 “Estrategia Europa 2020”, the Strategic Education and Training Framework 2020 and to the “Estrategia Replantear la Educación” Education Rethink Strategy.
- To promote employment in the local area of Getafe.
These general objecives and specifications of ODISEO 2015 respond to a previous analysis of the socio-professional situation and from the statistics from recent years in the local area of Getage, through which we have got to know the necessities of the young population in relation to the work situation and to the labour market in Getafe. For this segment of the young population they consider the necessity of training focused on their specified difficulty, which in a year increases their employability and makes possible subsequent rapid entry into the workforce.
For the achievement of these objectives, the ALEF will work with 4 intermediary partners (EUROYOUTH (Lisbon, PT), AMADEUS (Vienna, AT), INTERN EUROPE (Belfast, UK), EPPAS (Prague, CZ), which will support the development of the activities of ODISEO 2015 during the stays of the participants abroad. These partners will facilitate the socio-cultural and work integration of the participants, they will collaborate in questions of logistics during the stays, and they will support ALEF in the monitoring and the evaluation of the project.
Furthermore, with the objective of immediate entry into the workforce of the participants upon their return, ALEF counts on the support of the network of collaborative businesses, some of which are included in the project as local intermediary partners.
All of the businesses are located in the local area and are characterised by their high level of marketing and international projection. This network develops their work in the coordinated planning of active policies of employment, training, qualification, intermediation and entry into the workforce of participants in the programs managed by the Agency. These are some of the businesses: Contenur, Loewe, John Deere, Adecco, Confremar, Regenersis, EADS-Airbus, INHISET, FIDAMC, FESTA, Northgate, Centum, Promogenius.
ODISEO 2015 manages as many as 20 young people from Getafe whose ages are understood to be between 20 and 30 years old and who are enrolled in one of the the training courses for employment, wiht professional certificate (levels 2 & 3), which are integrated in the first stage of ODISEO 2015 given by the organizing agency, about Marketing and International Business (COMM0110), Installation and maintenance of air conditioning and ventilation - extraction (IMAR 0208), Installation and maintenance of refrigeration facilities (IMAR0108), and Aerospace manufacturing elements of composite materials (FME558_2).
The coordinating partner has organised all of the paperwork of the project through agreement with the different parts which participate in all of the process. In this way, ALEF will sign a contract with the participants and that contract will be incorporated into the training agreement which all parties will sign: Coordinator, participants, intermediary partner and host organisation. A second annex will be about the quality agreement. At the same time, ALEF will sign an agreement of intermediary partners which will define the obligations acquired.
ALEF has also drawn-up a system of monitoring and evaluation which will guarantee quality control and adherence to all of the activities of the proposal.
