European vocational guidance model for the Deaf was created, tested and approved in some partner states. The resulting establishment process and experiences in different backgrounds tested the basic VOGS+ Deaf in new circumstances, disseminated and completed it. The completed VOGS+Deaf model was integrated into existing vocational guidance systems through the training of practicing counselors.
